Today

Today was an interesting day at work, nothing crazy but now that I've had dinner, got out of my disease infested scrubs I can sit and reflect. My department is Very busy, we are the the bussiest scanner in North America, so we have the highest volume of patients, and not to mention we are the major stroke centre, Trauma center, and a Cancer centre. Today we were So busy, at times i got grumpy, we laughed A lot, swore sometimes, but most of us ran our butts getting these patients done. Today i worked so hard, i was actually sweating...but in the midst of it all, i was given 3 compliments...

1. You are very cheerful, how do you stay so cheerful in such a depressing place....I answered why thank you.

Someone going through cancer treatment, just drank 2L's of water and bowel medication, they have no hair, or money so they have to take the bus home, But they took the energy to tell me that...

2. I love your your shoes...I answered Thank you...you need some sort of style to go with these terrible Navy blue scrubs.

Everyday the Tech's in my deparment wear the same uniform day in and day out. I add to them by wearing Black and White Giraffe print shoes. They are very comfy, Expensive but worth every penny. They are made by Allegro, they are the "new" thing in the hospital. This patient must have noticed me in the hallway back and forth, and back and forth up and down, while they also drank there water in the hallway for 2 hours....what else to look at then that girls crazy shoes... ( me Of course)

3. Would you like to go for Chinese sometime???.......I RAN LIKE HELL AND BEGGED A CO-WORKER TO GET HIM OFF THE SCANNER!!

A very old chinese man that I looked after this afternoon was so sweet and I gave him some extra TLC wanted to take me for some "special" chinese food! hahahaha I quickly took out his IV and sent him on his way with his son!


So after all that, and 2 hours overtime, here I am, with my Health, my Amazing husband and my Itunes which I love and brings me to this....

My favorite Movie is SICKO, if you have not seen it, you really should, its created by Michael Moore.Its a documentary comparing the highly profitable American health care industry to other nations. Everyone knows about the American Health care system, it SUCKS and i can say that because I have experienced it once in Palm Springs. Our Health care system on the other hand, I also think it Stinks but these people are looked after, and they are not just a number, they are a person...someones mother, or father etc...

One of my favorite songs by Cat Stevens, its called Don't be Shy!! I will try to Post it to my Blog...(as soon as I learn how)

Good night!!
