🚑🐸 Successful “FROG” Transplant Complete! 🐸🚑

ACRU is proud to announce a very rare and highly technical procedure — a full FROG transplant 🛠️

After years of faithful service on our second out rescue, our original “FROG” needed a replacement, and thanks to an outstanding donor match from our friends at Yadkin County Rescue Squad & EMS, Inc. the operation was a success! 💪

The patient is stable… the numbers are glowing… and the crew didn’t even need to call medical control 😎Light tower and all generator electrical restored!

Huge shoutout to Yadkin County Rescue for the assist — proving once again that teamwork in the rescue world saves the day (and occasionally a frog). 🐸
