    gdnplnty got a reaction from FocusOnMeNow in Calling all nurses!   
    Hello! :-)
    While not a nurse, I do work in a hospital in the admissions department, and love the fantastic team that I have. Today, it seemed that it was really hard for me to just get thru it. I was struggling a bit, after all, go to 'lunch' and you are surrounded by p eople actually eatting food, and I am not (in my preop liquid stage). I felt at one point, I had to wipe the drool from my face before I made a mess on the table. Instead of me sitting there, bummed, and one of the nurses came, grabbed me and said hey lets go for a walk. It felt wonderful.
    I go on FMLA Saturday, and to say that I have had a tremendous support, well, it is overwhelming. I guess working for a very small hospital in a small town with a 8 bed ED, 20 bed facilty, means that we get along pretty well.
    Ironically, this is not the same with my family. To them, this is a terrible thing that I am doing.
