Dealing With Life...
It's a must. The cards we're dealt, aren't always the cards we'd like to be holding. Take for example the people I deal with on a daily basis. They didn't ask to be born or become sick. They didn't choose to slowly drift off into their own little alternate reality, where those whom they love, no longer know them.
I know Bobby has been concerned for his mother, and more so now than ever. She hasn't been doing well, and I can't figure out why? It's literally, as if her medications have stopped working. She's taken a complete 180, in less than a month. I've been "talked to" by the head nurse twice. I was informed that "I'm too close to the situation, and perhaps it would be best if I were assigned a new wing".
Bullshit. Yes, "Emma", is precious to me, as is her son, but that's not the point here. Bobby and I, whatever we were, are, or will ever be, that's not the point. The point is, I have a job to do, regardless of whom it is, they deserve the best care, and I am the best. Perhaps that's vain of me, but it's true. I provide the best care possible, and I'm not going to stop because someone happens to be dear to my heart. I treat EVERY patient the same. I take the cards life deals, regardless of where they're played.

That speaks volumes about you and your professionalism. I wish there were more nurses around that were like you are. So many of them could seem to care less. Good for you. :)
you go girl! stand up for what you believe! it's not often that people do that anymore and i think being "close" to the situation makes you work that much harder. hand in there!! HUG!
Chloe!!! I missed you so much!
Don't they know taking away a nurse she is familiar with and likes, is dangerous to her?
See?? That's why nurses are so underpaid.
Of course my Mom is a nurse and if I didn't say that she'd take me out of the will.
Chloe, hon, you cannot be more correct. It's good when you KNOW you're good and it's good when you use it to help others.
I'm right square behind you on this.
That is just sad Chloe'.
Hey, Chloe, need some help with that head nurse? =)
