06/06/06: Freaky...

Published

Had a patient admitted yesterday, 6/6/06: His BUN was 66 and creatinine was 6.6. Is that weird or what?!?!:coollook:

Yeah. But it is fun to play with.

There was a guy on the news yesterday. It was his 66th birthday, his address was #66, he was a former alderman of district 6, and he has 6 grandkids.

I agree - can't think of any way to relate except that ob . .. I go back to work tomorrow but am in the ER so won't have to take care of her. She probably doesn't like me - I had to be very firm with her.

I do think it's funny the way you put that, Steph. The patient from hell gives birth on 6/6/06. I wasn't trying to pick on you.

she knows that. she's pointing out the coincidence of the numbers.

Thanks, Tazzi. LOL. Of course I knew it was renal failure. And howdy!! How's Bundle?!

I'm not particularly superstitious either. If the date had been 05/05/05 and his BUN and creatinine were 55 and 5.5, I'd be just as amazed. :) BUT ... it happened on 06/06/06. Still kinda freaky!!

didn't bother me as 6-6-06 is actually 6-6-2006 and that is well....far away from 666! i didn't get the big hype with it all.

when i was MUCH younger (high school) i worked for McD's and had a customer's order total 6.66 she freaked out and ordered something else to change the amount. what gets me is if you do not believe in Christ then you shouldn't believe in 666. and if you do believe in Christ then you shouldn't be superstitious either!

Specializes in NICU.

We had qute a few women reschedule their c-sections after realizing it was 6-6-06. L&D was very quiet yesterday.

However...

We had a stable patient start acting up shortly after midnight on 6-6-06. At 6am, it was obvious that he was really getting sick. He passed away before midnight on 6-7-06. His name was Damian.

Yesterday was an awful day. Work was terrible. It was the first time in 12 yrs. that I cried at work because I was so overwhelmed. I cried the whole day. My patients weren't even that sick. So glad 6/6 is over.

666 is said to be the devils numbers, was my 6/6/06 day at work weird? Nothing bizarre happened, same old running for 12 hours as usual. Sometimes I think the devil created telemetry units LOL, just kidding.

HAHAHAHA!!!! I'm there! I was off yesterday, thank goodness!!

Can't wait until July 22 to transfer to ICU!!

I'm just happy that it also wasn't a full moon on Tuesday. People seem to get a little nutty during the full moon and I guess on 06/06/06.......but, we don't have to worry about that again for a thousand years. :lol2:

Oh my word people!!! I must be the only sane person on this planet. There is a lot that needs to happen before end times where we should worry about 666. So what does the date have to do with the mark of the beast anyway...come on.

I worked psych for 5 years and now ED and I can't believe educated people still believe in the stupid full moon junk either. Whatever...my worst days have been on, any day, of any month, in any year, regardless of how big the moon was.

Just like Y2K...did the world end...did life as we know it change d/t every computer on the planet crashing...um...NO!
