irregularly irregular

i suppose i did know, somehow, with needle in hand (and in patient), as i watched him storm off, that i was not the only one with these moments.

hence after reading this.. i knew we could all do with a little bit of help.. especially needed before my sunday call tomorrow...

from angels in the ER by Dr Robert D. Leslie
"but we are all undressed in the ER, all of us. Our strengths and weaknesses are openly and sometimes uncomfortably exposed. This is true for patients and physicians alike. As caregivers, whether nurse or doctor, orderly or secretary, we quickly learn the limits of our willingless and ability to empathise, to sacrifice, and to step outside of ourselves. It is possible to remain aloof, distant and shielded.. but it comes with a price. Ultimately, the ER is a place where the faith of each one of us will be tested. Our beliefs will be tempered and refined, or exposed and discarded as worthless. Here we can learn who we are and on what ground we stand. And sometimes, it is a place where our faith can be found."

i suppose it's also a sign that i have to be there on 1st nov.. see you jannie..

Abide in Me..
