I've been wondering where Esme is, thinking maybe I just haven't been traveling the same threads as her. Just now I decided to stop waiting to see her around, and searched for her. She hasn't posted since March 6th. I'm going to PM her as well, but in case I don't hear back, is Esme okay? Anyone know her in real life?
I love you guys......I am hopefully finally on the mend. I am home....... with my own hospital bed and my own nurses that come (3days a week LOL) I should write about my ordeal...it has been interesting to say the least.I am so thankful for all of the prayers and get well thoughts!
I love my AN family
Esme! I have thought of you so many times. I love AN but it has felt different without you. You represent what an amazing nurse is and all nurses should strive to be: intelligent, strong, humble, curious, clever, and kind.
Someone who has compassion but a strong core that can bend when necessary. Someone who never stops learning, even from her own experiences. A desire to pass on knowledge to other nurses and physicians. The strength to advocate for her patients, the humor to get through tough times. You embody what so many of us long to become.
And now that I've become a total sappy mess I will just say welcome home. I hope you are enjoying being back with your dogs.
♡♡♡(((Esme)))♡♡♡

Welcome Back! You have been missed by so many. Take time to heal of course, but keep us in the loop on how you are doing.
Esme12, I'm glad you're home, finally. Looking back, it has been an incredible journey and we all have been hoping for this day where you're on the mend and well enough to be home. We still don't know what it was that caused you so be so ill, but I suspect that we'll learn, in time, if you choose to tell. I think what matters more isn't so much the illness, but perhaps your experience and growth as a person through this whole ordeal. That's a story I think we'll eagerly await!
I still have a hospital bed and a team of home health visitors.....PT, OT, RN's and LPN's to match my team of physician's....it's almost comical.
I...Esme...have an entourage! Of physicians and nurses et.al.
I am....a little worse for wear but now I am the energizer bunny (as my hubby reminds me) with my pacemaker due to heart block..... I plan to be around for quite a few more years.
My poor little family have been through a lot. I was septic and critical for about 3 weeks last April. Blessedly, the team at MGH saved my life a handful of cardiac arrests and I'm right as rain!! I even ran my own rapid response in rehab!
I am getting there and while I tire easily I am getting back to my old self although about 80 lbs lighter. (I don't recommend my diet plan....LOL)
I did out myself and found some members of AN and I hope I recruited more to my beloved site. Tn and sirI have kept me updated and I would read through the site incognito.
I missed you ALL. I felt the love and it helped me on some pretty trying days. I was totally hospitalized for a little more than 9 months.
I am glad to be home.
I will. It needs telling. What a nightmare.....that is all gone.....almost.Esme12, I'm glad you're home, finally.
