Analysis of Philip Larkin's "Ambulances"

In Larkin’s poem Ambulances, he uses an ambulance to convey both the loneliness of age and death, and the fact that death comes to all, sooner or later. Ambulances are generally vehicles that are associated with help and rescue, but in this poem the ambulance is portrayed in an ominous light, in order to jar the reader’s sense of security. In this poem, the ambulance is in effect like the Grim Reaper, who comes to collect souls and ferry’s them into the afterlife.

Emergency Fire and Police Sirens; The Loud Noise Bully of the Twenty-First Century

This article explores the problem of excess noise volume from government emergency-vehicle sirens. Emergency sirens grow louder and brighter each decade.

My son was diagnosed with Benign Enlargement of the Subarachnoid Space also known as BESS. The symptoms associated with BESS are very similar to those associated with Shaken Baby Syndrome. Often times parents are falsely accused of SBS because doctors fail to look past abuse to find the real answers and diagnoses. This is what happened to my family.
