PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, Md. — After an emotionally heavy call, one paramedic decided to take an extra step in helping two children in need.
Prince George's County paramedic Lt. Pamela Graham responded to a call of two toddlers who had been stabbed by their father Nov. 11.
"We got the call as 'children stabbed,' so you think, 'No, this cannot be. Something's wrong,'" Graham told NBC Washington.
The 2- and 3-year-old boys were transported by first responders to the hospital, where they were treated for non-life threatening injuries. The boys' father, Christian Diller, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and assault.
Weeks after the call, Graham set up a YouCaring page in order to raise funds for the family, who is trying to relocate and move forward. She also set up a Christmas party for the family, which Graham plans to hold at her house with members of the fire and police department.
"Two-year-olds and 3-year-olds are supposed to be running around, jumping off the couch and playing with the toys," Graham said.
Almost $3,000 of a $10,000 goal has been raised for the family.
