I’m sorry about venting in my last blog. I really do know the value of my job, and those priceless moments with patients… I wouldn’t trade them for anything. I work with a group of competent nurses and I’m grateful for the team I have, I really can’t complain. We discharged a ward favorite today, a three year old boy that we’ve been taking care of for awhile. I almost kidnapped him.
I made a decision to be positive today no matter what, and I had the best day I've had in awhile. I made people laugh and smile, and I even caused myself to laugh and smile.

I had a funny nurse moment today. I told my patient that I was going to change the dressing on his rectal area wound before he was discharged. I didn’t have any of my supplies with me, but he pulled his pants down and laid over the bed in an uncomfortable looking way, in total surrender. I seriously had to refrain from laughing. I told him I needed to gather supplies and he could relax until I got back. When I returned, he was still in that awkward position, completely at my mercy. How many professions do you know of that you can tell a stranger to drop his pants and he does it without question?
Stripping?:)
ReplyDeleteI think I read a book once about that topic, and what Donnie says is apparently true. Some men will drop their trousers for a stripper upon request without a second thought. So there may indeed be two such professions! We may also want to consider proctologists, football coaches, massage therapists, bikini waxers and a few others. OK. Back to the real world! Glad you are doing well.
