...had the flu and high fever for three days.

I hope you're feeling better. Being sick sucks!

Little Miss Adventure?

ROTFLOLOL!

Okay...after reading about Little Miss Adventure, I’ve decided 60Gunner is extremely talented, and a HOOT to boot!

My sister was an ICU/CCU nurse, but spent some time in the ER. She had some great stories.

My daughter is a PharmD resident. So far, the best she’s been able to come up with is a story about her crash unit cracking a guy’s chest to manually massage his heart. While it was very interesting to her, it wasn’t funny at all. Hopefully, when she is gainfully employed, and not quite as serious, the stories will get better.

However, I’m hooked on your stories, 60Gunner. As I said, you are a very gifted story teller.

Would you please add me to your ping list?

Your writing is wonderful (I’m envious).

The dream combo: great prose, passion for your work.

I'm just now getting around to this.
You must be one of the good ones my S-I-L keeps telling me about. (She's an RN also)

You really really need to consider putting all of the anecdotes into book form and selling them with a catchy title.

Have you seen any of 60gunner’s other Emergency Nursing stories?

No, but I'd appreciate a ping when future posts hit the forum. If this is any indication they each must be a classic. Oh the stories out there to tell....truth is always better than fiction when the world is full of idiots!

The first one was an instant classic!

Do a FR Search on “ERNURSING” and “EMERGENCYNURSING” for the rest.
