The REALLY BAD NIGHT . . .

As an RN working two nights a week in the womens center doing Labor & delivery, you're bound to have some REALLY BAD NIGHTS.

As was the case today, I came home kind of a basket case . . .

Or maybe Train wreck might be a better expression . . .

Imagine all the horror stories you've experienced or ever had told to you about women's delivery experiences. While usually they are the far extreme, as a nurse you get to experience almost all of them at some time or another.

From time to time it can be really difficult and sometimes I ask myself . . .
WHY do I do this?


Then I got a phone call.

My neighbor's frantically getting ready for a big reception in her yard.
She has hundreds of guests arriving soon for her daughters wedding reception which is in their backyard this evening.

She needed help doing this . . .

And this . . .

And guess what?

I feel better now.

So now, I can go back again tonight - to deliver more babies!
