2. Death in the OR

   MrsMig replied to RNdreams7's topic in Operating Room

   MrsMig replied to Dkmn85's topic in Operating Room

   I just don't understand why some of the nursing community is not supportive. Yes some are but some are just down right mean and not supportive and it boggles me because we all benefit when we succeed and it's about the patient!! Anyhow, I wish ...

13. How's the Summer going?

    MrsMig posted a topic in Camp

    I'm curious to hear how everyone is doing? As you saw from my diabetic thread, I had that issue to contend with. No major (knock on wood) issues. Had a counselor pass out; toe nail ripped off that then became infected and have since learned that is...

14. Diabetic issue

    MrsMig replied to MrsMig's topic in Camp
