   Lovely article, and this former nursing professor really appreciates the words and the learning curve that motivated them!!

2. Forced to resign, new grad with only 1 year of experinece.

   trishmsn replied to Elan84's topic in General Nursing

   Let's see....poor English skills, inability to handle feedback, and if I had to take a guess, I think the OP is from a country where there are very rigid social classes. I believe that the OP feels that she is being insulted by people that she feels...

3. CDC rec to counsel all males about benefits of circumcision

   trishmsn replied to sistrmoon's topic in General Nursing

   I must be getting old. Suddenly the fact that males have a penis and only females can become pregnant (current SCOTUS case) are addressed by some as "discrimination". Take it up with G-d or Mr. Darwin, depending on your belief system, but for the l...

4. What is My Family Thinking?

   trishmsn replied to flashpoint's topic in Geriatric

   Enjoy....I am sure I, umm, 'borrowed' it from a bigger brain and more prolific writer than myself!

5. What is My Family Thinking?

   trishmsn replied to flashpoint's topic in Geriatric

   Sounds like you have the spinal tenacity to stand up to crazeee people, but if you find yourself buying into the madness, I suggest you read or buy the book "Boundaries" by Dr. Henry Cloud. Great ideas on keep the insanity of others out of YOUR life...

6. Support Kaci Hickox

   trishmsn replied to nurse2033's topic in COVID

   You find it "disturbing" that other professionals may have a different opinion than you??? I find THAT more than a little disturbing...

7. Here's How the CDC Director Protects Himself from Ebola (But Not Nurses)

   trishmsn replied to MissyWrite's topic in COVID

   Well, since nurses and other health care personnel can ONLY get this (or any other) virus by "breaching protocol", it is clear that these expensive suits and other equipment are MUCH to valuable to 'waste' on hospital employees.....[end sarcasm font]

8. Silliest answer someone has said in class?

   trishmsn replied to marvelmom's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Well he gets an "A" for effort....but the instructor should have told him that is a reflex acting on muscle...the cremasteric reponse!!

10. Lazy coworkers

    trishmsn replied to SU2013's topic in Professionalism

    Gee, OP, did you ever go by "Zuzi" in a previous life???

11. child safety

    trishmsn replied to amoLucia's topic in Safety

    The Washington Post ran a Pullitzer prize-winning article on this titled "Fatal Distraction", and it is worth a read for anyone concerned about this subject. As mentioned, parents are from across the educational and socioeconomic scales, and most are...

12. Recurrent dreams about work.

    trishmsn replied to dudette10's topic in General Nursing

    This is analogous to the exam dream many have in school...going to take a final only to find out that you did not go to class all semester OR that you cannot find the room for the test!! I don't think this is terribly worrisome, just your brain proce...

13. Health Care and Contraception: Did the Supreme Court Get It Right?

    trishmsn replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    It is fine...you are stuck on biology. Not everyone can see past that which is visible to the eye. ...and then it is a quick dodge to misogyny and class baiting. Oh well, you can only manage to use the tools you have. Peace....

14. Health Care and Contraception: Did the Supreme Court Get It Right?

    trishmsn replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    THIS is where you fail to note the difference between that which is verifiable by science, and that which is a matter of faith. Once again, you do not know when a human receives a soul. IT IS BEYOND THE SCOPE OF SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY. Whether a blasto...

15. Health Care and Contraception: Did the Supreme Court Get It Right?

    trishmsn replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    Your example is an "error" or a "miscommunication". There is no scientific method for proving ensoulment or personhood. It is a matter of faith, and the Court has ruled that those who hold this belief, REGARDLESS of your opinion, may not be forced t...
