    LasVegasRN replied to LasVegasRN's topic in General Nursing

    Today has been very, very difficult. I had to go back to my office and cry, pull myself together and come back to work on the other patients in the unit. I can't interact with the family anymore, and my social worker is picking up the interactions so...
