I am sure the Christian Reverend would not agree with that statement. Bigotry and being repulsed by an abdomination are 2 different things.

Nope, no Martin here! Feeling better, now, though!
That was a rough one...Helped at VBS this week, and caught "the bug" from the little kiddos, but it was worth it!
O. Here it is, it rolled off my first post.

I keep a rolled up heating pad sm
on my lower back and it takes care of those pains you are speaking of. My legs also get cold, even with long pants on, so the heating pad helps to warm them up. I usually keep it on for 2 hours then turn it off for an hour, and then back on. It really helps.
Here I am, back from the grave!
You are so funny! LOLOLOLOLOL. Wanna play!
Here I am, back from the grave!
Did you miss me?
it is heaven and paradise all rolled into one-I hope you get to go soon.
Kauai and Molokai are my personal favorites because they are the least developed (that people can visit)
Have you tried just keeping a rolled towel behind your back?

Stay out of it. She is digging her own grave.

Kids used to like PB on tortilla and rolled up. Could do night before and not get soggy.

Anything an MT can do when you have grave concerns about patient care?

Is there anything at all an MT can do when you have grave concerns about the care a patient is receiving? I know the answer to this is probably no, but I am so completely frustrated with my one of "my" doctors right now.  I know that one of his patients is not receiving the proper care, and I am really worried for this patient. I wish I could contact the patient's mother and let her know my concerns, but I know that is not allowed and I would be fired for doing so. I know that I'm not anywhere near as smart as a doctor, but my son has the same condition that this patient does and I know that the patient is not receiving the proper care or even the correct diagnosis. It is hard to go into all of the details for confidentiality reasons. I just know, 100% sure, that this patient deserves better care than he is receiving. 


Sometimes the virtual world that we work in is great, and other times it really stinks. If I were working in the doctor's office I could gently share my concerns (maybe I would still be fired but I could give it a shot). Here in this virtual world where the doctors don't even know I exist I can do absolutely nothing.


I'm just so frustrated at the doctor and so very worried for this patient.


I worked grave yard for years but then my jobs all
disappeared by midnight. This very large company said they needed help late and I always did my work, did all the preop hps, etc., but now I am lucky to get 5 jobs a night. This happened to several others that I know, too. It is simply that the off-shore do it cheaper. I did not get paid a differential, either. I just like that shift, but I also need work, so good bye big company
Personally I would not force her to go - she can alway visit the grave site to say goodbye- sm
My mom died about 18 months ago, but has there been a funeral I would not have had my kids there (they were 6 & 4 at the time). I know my in-laws would have thought me a terrible person for that but I would not have cared (my mom donated her body to science-- my dad is too). An open casket is a lot different than a closed one and can make quite an impression on some. I just don't think that is something that should be pushed. She is old enough to make the decision, you should abide by it.
