Please don't take me to the hospital!
9/1/15
Hello little (and big) ones.
The message was loud and clear today.
Nursing for me is over.
I had given my notice today. The fifteenth was going to be my last day, transition out, smoothly, you know, be a good employee, etc, etc, etc.
But No!!!
I had to go and try to pass out, got sent to the ER where I spent the day. Whoo Hoo! Nothing bad found. Nothing happened, not a sound.
But my blood pressure was sky high (for me) but kept coming down all day. Now I am normal (very subjective), oh I thought for sure I was going to be staying for a night or more. All the tests were negative, and my career is now over. I can't go back.
It is just too much.
As my new pal says (paraphrasing here) you have got to take care of you. She is the one who noticed my bloodless face. I felt dizzy and ignored it. Then I stood up and walked two steps to her desk and she looked up at me and said that I was as white as a ghost. So, she would not accept my refusal to go and wheeled me into the ER. Then came to visit me TWICE.
What a sweetie. MWAHH to you Marianne!!!
When in the morning meeting today I made the announcement I surprised a lot of people and alot of my pals started crying and I guess it really affected me. Because before long I was getting wheeled down the hall to the ER. I stayed all day and just got home. I am so full of gamma rays I glow in the dark.
So my advice to all my PWP pals is to take it EZ!! no big emotional swings, just BE.
I am thinking of yoga to relax.
Also I may start a pod-cast....
Until then...
Peace and love my babies!
