ive gone to... four i think.two teenage pt's funerals.. car accident.. went to HS with my little brother and i happened to be on duty when they crashed... elderly man passed of lung CA who owned a local scrub shop.. i was always in there buying stuff and i wanted to pay my respect to him. and a friends granny who came in with a heart attack and didnt make it... other than that, i try not to get very attached... i think it would make me a basket case... but when my cousin died of a heart attack @ age 25, the hospital arranged for the cvicu nurses involved in his care to go to his funeral. it was a very special gesture to our family and we were very grateful to them.
