    What a gracious, yet effective, way to get her point across. I admire that kind of confident and creative boundary-setting. I shall file this away for future reference.

    I wish stuff like that came so naturally to me!

    I'll bet she's cool as a cucumber during emergencies too. Now that's a nurse for ya!

    Johnson and Johnson needs to use a new motto, something like...

    "NURSING....IT'S NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART"
