Being the hard core MF that i am it is difficult to express what i fell which is what you wrote, ohh i found a flight school in St. louis for direct to rotary wing ...HOOAH!! ok back on track. I think that is why ive been so blah lately. since moving to SICU ive held quite a few hands as they went limp and cold and maybe its the lack of emotion that disturbes me the most. its not burnout but more of a hard candy shell to prevent my inner chocolate center from melting. well confab at drill and get sticky on the subject? blubber blubber wiping tears from his eyes.

I think you are writing about things that are universal to our profession, and yet people can be very reluctant to admit some of these things, out of a fear of appearing weak. The ironic thing is that denying that there is pain involved is the "easy" path, and admitting the pain is there is sometimes the hardest thing to do.

You are the last person that should ever worry about being alone. Your life will work its self out. You have a great support group... Just use them. Make time for yourself. Go out, go camping or golfing.... or even BOATING, summer is almost over. I know how hard it is to deal with dying patients when your own life is in the shit house. I have been there, I think I live there. But life goes on. This is the only hand of cards we get, play them the best you can. Bluff big, and go all in. If we don't gamble then we can never win. You have to lose a few times to really understand that big win. I carried that way to far..lol. Keep your head up. You can do it. Miss you. JS Emily,

Things will settle back down. Seems like every 7-8 years the cycle repeats itself. I re-evaluate, clean out the clutter, and make/change some goals. I always forget how painful the process is though! Now if I could only figure out what to do with the 500 lbs of professional journals I seem to keep forever! Thanks JP—-

You're making a difference in the world and that's more than a lot of people can say. I've also been there...done that. It's not always easy, but some of us do it anyway. Hang in there...you rock, girl! Emily,

You hit the nail right on the head. There are days that I miss working in healthcare and there are days that I am glad that I don't work in healthcare anymore. One of these days I will get around to working on my blog that has some of the healthcare stories that I remember. Beautiful Post. You hit the nail right on the head.
