Today was a good day. Busy, but good. I suppose I could tell you how one of my post-op patients and I celebrated when he finally went pee, but I'm going to guess you don't really want to hear it. ha ha. Yeah. But you would celebrate too if you found out now you didn't need to have a catheter put in. Funny how the thought of a catheter can just scare the pee right out of some people... (i know, i know, look at how sick nursing has twisted my sense of humor! AHHHHHHH!)
Actually, it was a good day at the hospital. All of my patients are friendly, and so far no major complications. If you don't know, I'm working 2-3 days a week on an orthopedic rehab unit at Metro Hospital in Grand Rapids. It's part of finishing up my last semester. I have to be back at the hosp. tomorrow by 6:30am. And I didn't even get home today until 8pm! grrr...
Anyway, life's good, so that's that. Be blessed and thank God that you have the use of your legs today!!

Peeing is an important part of life, so I totally understand. I can't believe you are almost done with school. Anyone would be lucky to have you as a nurse. I love ya!
Cindy,
That made me laugh!
I agree w/ Lisa, if they have to be in the hospital at least they have a kind, compassionate nurse like you to take care of them.
It has been nice to read your blog. A sneak peek into the life of Cindy!
You're so cute CindyK! I miss having you around. (I secretly wish that I were the missing Solomon sister)

KIND AND COMPASSIONATE!?!?!?!?!
you know that this will be me in about two years don't you? wait, it's me already!! actually, this is kind of ironic, but today we were joking around about pee (oh excuse me; urine) in ana. phys. for about ten minutes or so. pretty much we joke about most things we talk about in there. yesterday we moved the big intestines aside to yank out the kidneys of our cats. do you remember the blue and red latex that they squirt into the veins and vessels after they drain the blood? some of my classmates were amused with playing yo yo with the latex and kindeys. oh my my my, those crazies.........
