    lady partsl ca that had destroyed so much tissue that she had one large cavernous opening that contained both her lady parts and her orifice. We couldn't tell where to put a foley so we just had to...

  3. Sheez! She's back and venting AGAIN!!

    fronkey bean replied to missrose's topic in General Nursing

    Its good that you recognize that your tone was inappropriate and you apologized. However, even after a sincere apology, it takes awile for the negativity you injected into the situation to clear. You...

  4. Sheez! She's back and venting AGAIN!!

    fronkey bean replied to missrose's topic in General Nursing

    The problem is that when you go off on others you cause them to be distressed which can affect their pt care. An upset, distracted nurse may not be able to provide their usual level of care. So while...

  5. Gay Boomers and nursing attitudes

    fronkey bean replied to woody62's topic in General Nursing

    not sure which post you mean but understand what you mean. As a current Christian, I've seen tolerance and intolerance from Christians and non-Christians alike. I think it is just harder to take from...

  8. Gay Boomers and nursing attitudes

    fronkey bean replied to woody62's topic in General Nursing

  9. Gay Boomers and nursing attitudes

    fronkey bean replied to woody62's topic in General Nursing

    fronkey bean replied to woody62's topic in General Nursing

    Too feeble to take on anyone, Tom, just like to run my mouth and say what I think. P.S. Did he really betray us i.e. can you give a specific incidence of betrayal not just the fact that he is in...

  12. Gay Boomers and nursing attitudes

    fronkey bean replied to woody62's topic in General Nursing

  13. Gay Boomers and nursing attitudes

    fronkey bean replied to woody62's topic in General Nursing

    "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" We are all judged as sinners by God who, in His mercy, offers forgiveness to all. Many people of faith believe that religious rules are not...

  14. Gay Boomers and nursing attitudes

    fronkey bean replied to woody62's topic in General Nursing

    B/c the words are so negatively charged. If we ever want to make progress toward a more understanding relationship among different groups, we have to have discussions like this, but we can't have them...

    fronkey bean replied to woody62's topic in General Nursing

    Ok, this relic from a bygone era didn't realize people had moved on. I thought it was like when AAs call thmseves the "N" word; ok if they do it but not ok if a white does it b/c of the bigotry...

    fronkey bean replied to woody62's topic in General Nursing

  21. Sick Day

    fronkey bean replied to indigo girl's topic in General Nursing
