We lost a wonderful nurse this past week, way before what all of her friends/family/co-workers think was her time. We constantly take care of others, yet always put ourselves last, or in some cases, refuse to get the help that we need. While we can help others shift after shift after shift, we need to remember that we need to be taken care of as well. I know that times are hard right now, it's the holidays, etc, but if you are sick, please go get checked out. If you are in trouble, please don't be too proud to ask for help. There are plenty of us who love you and who will help you in any way that we can.
