Hey Nooshie,

I tried to go to the website you referenced and this is the message I received: Uh oh!

Sorry, the user you are looking for does not exist.

Am I doing something wrong?

Kinda what I do...I am a histotech at a Childrens hospital. 17 years later and yep! its the best job ever!:tongue2:

How neat to find another pathology person :cheated: I've only been grossing for a year but it never ceases to amaze me how high the rate of job satisfaction is in the field. I might be cross training in histology in the coming year, at the moment I don't get any farther than loading and maintaining the processors.

So many jobs....I was originally hired as "Girl Friday" 6 years ago. Now I am Executive Secretary/Banquet Coordinator/Webmaster/Membership Marketing Director/Family Activities Director for a private country club. I think I enjoy the pressure of always having something that must be done.

And on top of that, I am the wife of a Marine and the mother of a 13 year old drama queen. (Also have 2 grown boys) In my free time (occassionally I have that) I like to redecorate our house, sew and read true crime.

I love my life right now. However, sometimes when I have a few seconds to think, I wonder if I stay this busy and continue to take on more and more in order to not have time to deal with the past/pain.

I am a Lead Business Analyst in the IT department of a very large U.S. Airline. Love my job, hate the constant uncertainty of whether or not I will be one of the unlucky ones who gets layed off.

Yea, I understand that feeling. We keep getting slower and slower and we are over staffed! SCARY TIMES...

I'm a civilian working for the local Sheriff's Office. I run the county Jail Diversion Program which removes the mentally ill from the justice system or jail (if they meet established criteria) and gets them into treatment instead. It's federally funded through a grant, so I worry about my future employment as well.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
