REPLY: fonzzy07...I hope you get well very soon. Unfortunately--and especially when there are trained professionals on the scene--unless an official is trained as an EMT or similar trauma relief, we really can't do much other than keep everyone except the professionals away and let them do what they need to. Especially when there's a lack of feeling/motion in the extremeties, most medical professionals will not be in a hurry to move you for fear of further damage. And even when they do move you, it will usually be very carefully onto a backboard and then into an ambulance.
