Hi blogger friends! So, I know I have been silent on here lately but that is because I have been busy writing a book! I left my job in CT as a RN due to health related issues, and during my time off I started writing poems in my phone. Now, at first this was …
appreciate the little things
Today I came home from my usual 12 hour shift (which usually ends up being a 14 hour day) on my oncology unit. To start my day off one of my patients was being RRT'd, for those of you who do not speak the medical jargon - RRT means rapid response team - meaning the …
