We were all so very scared and I tell you, we just couldn't have done it without the wonderful support we had from the nurses. It meant more than I could ever say, and I'm sure your patient's family felt the same. Take care of yourself. xxJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04998986027822864433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-47425812230857033482012-01-24T15:10:54.961+00:002012-01-24T15:10:54.961+00:00Little by little, one tiny step at a time...huge h...Little by little, one tiny step at a time...huge hugs. xxElizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05792185208462306952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-49517741946743743542012-01-23T22:01:32.585+00:002012-01-23T22:01:32.585+00:00Empathy is a wondrous quality and a particularly u...Empathy is a wondrous quality and a particularly useful one in the nursing profession.

I remember the first time i saw someone who could have been my brother, only this man was walking, and my brother had died some time before, and i nearly drove off the road. <br /><br />Good on that nurse for giving you a squeeze and saying in that moment's touch more than a thousand words. I love those stalwart souls.<br /><br />I'm glad you could be there for the family and glad for your sake, he went early on in your shift.
