Here's what you should do...refilll the MD socks...not with candy, but with health stuff, gluten free, soy based , parsnips etc. Then on the front of the stocking tape a picture of any of the patients featured on my 600 pound life. Then right on it write Physician heal thyself! They'll start worrying about blowing up like a big fatty, and the candy will be left for us awesome nurses who run their assess off every shift so much that the candy doesn't affect them at all

I had a bizarre realization when I was doing compressions during a code in surgery. Here I was singing that stupid "ah, ah, ah, ah, staying alive, staying alive" song in my head. When we switched out and I stepped back for a bit, I heard the radio playing on the speaker in the OR suite...I sh*t you not, it was playing "another one bites the dust"... and darned if it isn't the same beat/tempo! So, with that evil little nugget of knowledge, i bid you good night. Sometimes we just have to find the humor in things to press through all the incredibly tough, heartbreaking, maddening moments we as nurses have to endure.

maybe, with the patients that have kids, when they are there visiting during the day, have some cards or pictures available for them to color or write notes to mom...that way when she breaks down at night, you can say- look jimmy drew you a new picture today....or, sarah actually spelled mommy right this time-...something new to focus on in the middle of the night can sometimes bring them down out of their tree. Kind of like in OB, having a focal object that you can show them, get them to calm down, breathe through it..ive been a patient too (alot) and just having one of the kids stuffed animals with me to cling to helped.
