>> Just read her IMDb biography - I agree!
Unfortunately, no indications you’re being sarcastic.
>> and I’m supposed to care about a self destructive, drunken Hollywood degenerate
What exactly are your ER responsibilities?
The anticipated cause of death, anoxic brain damage, jives with the respiratory injuries you described.
I have watched Perry Mason for years and love it. Bought the entire episodes of DVDs for if it is not on TV my area.
Hollywood is a place where souls are destroyed.
“....like a flaming meteor right into your garage.”
Thank you. She committed suicide and destroyed someone else’s home. No excuse for driving impaired.
More FR sulfuric sympathy showers for the dead or near dead
Yes it is. Can’t you abide with the rules Jimrob has set forth. Especially in his current situation?
Sorry for your loss Frank.
I'm often asked by the nurses to help transfer a deceased patient off the stretcher onto a metal morgue stretcher. It's one thing to help a patient who can't walk to well but when they're dead you really understand what the term ''dead weight'' means. Covid rooms are tough. That's when I have to put on the ''moon suit'' as I call it. Gown, full face shield , cap and gloves off course. Never handle anything in an ER without wearing gloves. One of the worst things I had to do was clean up blood and brain matter from a woman who had her head bashed in. This poor woman's head was beaten in so badly there was brain matter in her mouth and nostrils and on the floor. And the person who did it to her was her own son. Last night I had the rare honor and privilege to meet "Eddie. Eddie told me he was 100 years old and he was wearing a cap that said "Iwo Jima Survivor''. Eddie served with the 4th. Marine Division, the same unit as my late father-in-law. I talked with him for a little while. He told he no sooner landed on the island when "A Jap mortar round threw me 'bout twenty feet in the air!''. I said '' Good Lord, were you wounded?'' He said 'NO, I was mad as hell and went looking for the son of a bitch. Didn't find though''. I've met all kinds of people. Little kids, sweet old ladies, veterans, regular folks and some real assholes too. Last year I was bring clean linen into the Psychiatric Observation Unit( "The Happy Hatch'') and as I was putting away I was chatting with a nurses aide, a sweet young girl named Iris when out of no where a male patient, a stocky Latino kid walked up to her and punched her right in the face. The poor girl hit the floor and this asshole continued hitting her. I reached down , grabbed his right arm and put my left arm around his neck and yelled at him "Alto! Alto ahora( stop now'' in Spanish). Thankfully at that moment for nurses and security guards came into the unit and took control of the situation. I was attacked myself by some nutjob in a silver BMW who followed me into the hospital parking lot for some reason. I pulled over at one point, got out of my car and went up to this dude and said "What the problem?'' He flew out of his car and started shoving me around. Now years ago I trained rather extensively in karate and could have done a number on this guy but I didn't. Had I done so I would have been fired. The hospital wouldn't have wanted the liability and I can understand that. I called the cops, had the guy arrested and taken to court. He got off with a suspended sentence for assault. I've been working at this hospital, it part of the Barnabas Health System and I've been a patient in the ER five times for high blood pressure. I've had a pacemaker implanted three years ago and back in February of this year I had a cardiac stent put in. All in all it's a good job, the ER staff are so kind and caring to me,. I'd do anything for them.
“I don’t believe she ever repented. A lost soul.”
I don’t believe we can be that confident; there are FAR too many possibilities in God. We cannot know the extent or content of His conversations within the minds of the dying in those last fleeting hours and minutes, as they lay silent. We know only, and believe fervently in, the pervasive nature of His love, the universality of Christ’s payment of the Divine judicial death penalty of sin, and the magnanimity of God’s grace. It would be pretentious to claim to know the content of the frail inward thoughts exchanged between a fading spirit hovering at the threshold of eternity and the Holy Spirit of God.
I think there will be MANY people in Heaven that cock-sure American churchianity has written off as lost causes.
Thanks for doing that work. Helping people on what might be the worst day of their life. Human tragedy and joy meet in the ER.
Eddie, I would consider a high point in my year and an honor to meet him.
Agreed. I am glad she will not survive. One less democrat party supporter.
You see Hopper( “Paul Drake’’) smoking cigarettes in the courthouse, in Mason's office. Man, even as a kid I remember adults doing that. I especially enjoy Ray Collins as the snarky "Lt Tragg'' and William Talman as the frequently frustrated and cantankerous "Hamilton Berger'' as the DA. Mason is almost always tripping him up.
She is better off she would have been very disfigured and MANY, MANY, surgeries would have been ahead of her!! I don’t feel a damn bit sorry for her I am very happy no one was in the house she destroyed!! I thank God with all of the drugs and alcohol in her system behind the wheel of a car she didn’t kill someone else!!
Good. Driving drunk and high. She deserves to pay a price. Ultimate price, idk. Celebrated was not good.
Bye Anne. See you nevertheless.
I tell you the moment I saw Eddie come in with his son and I saw that cap I said to myself “I’ve GOT to talk to this man’’.
Eddie told me that when they’d try and get some sleep in their fox holes “We all had .45’s because the Japs would come up outta now where and try and get ya’’.”And all night all you’d hear was ‘’pop, pop’’ ‘cuz some guy was popping off some Jap’’.
>> I’ve met all kinds of people. Little kids, sweet old ladies, veterans, regular folks and some real assholes too.
I make it a point to keep the bathrooms clean so the janitorial service doesn’t have to clean up after the idiots. And I’m talking about professional office space.
Your porter responsibilities are obviously far more in depth and precarious.
I belong to a family of Cops, Nurses, & EMTs. The stories you shared are not uncommon — but each with their unique challenges. Ultimately, every situation is subject to the quality of care... and love.
Thanks Gene. I’ve done office cleaning too. Some of those ‘’ office suits’’ types can be real slobs.
What used to piss me off and still does, even in a hospital are the idiots who think a waste paper basket is a sink and they throw in a full cup of coffee.
ARRGGH!
