Cup crazy

Yes, it's all sports around here all the time at the RehabRN ranch, but the boys (Dahey and Bubba) are really getting into the World Cup of soccer.

You can't really blame them, though. That Ghana vs. USA game started with a bang.

That is all...back to the latest game.

Hope you enjoy your week wherever you are.

2012 in with a bang

Yes, I wasn't hallucinating when I heard that my windows rattling. Turns out the flight patterns are changing and even though we're not too close to any airports, I did hear a loud plane overhead.

Got to work and found out one of our patients didn't make it to 2012. Mr. X. died and was buried by the time I got back. It was sad really. We liked him. His trip to the Hotel seemed in vain at first, because we couldn't do exactly what he wanted, but we did get him some good ol' QOL. (Quality of Life).

One of the managers at Madison also passed away after a tragic accident right around Christmas. They thought he was fine after surgery, but was put on life support. He made it to 2012, but barely. The family let go just after the New Year, when they told them he would not live without the vent. Some of our staff took it harder than most. This manager had been on campus for many years, even though, he wasn't yet retirement age.

When I thought I'd finally dodged all the random GI bugs my friends and relatives seemed to have, I got caught with something equally ugly--the nasty sinus headache that literally made me sick. Nothing like telling your boss you'd love to come to work but can't in between running to the bathroom. I just may have to download this app for the New Year, or make a date with the surgeon to fix the messed up sinuses once and for all.

Stay tuned. It's never dull here...
