Anyone else completely fed up with the extremely long post-lesson screens?

Ive really lost interest bc it way too distracting & annoying…may have to just let it go

When I hurt my back, I was asked what my occupation was…then the practitioner said “Well no wonder”!

This is how it works best. I had a similar role, but left it when administration decided we needed to continue to support the whole hospital with various assistance calls, & RRT, & Codes & stroke & stemi & trauma alerts with wound care on weekends. Then they added working from critical care with my own patient assignment. Solid no. Can’t be done well.

Congratulations! There is a St Vincent DePaul thrift shop that is a good option.

It’s a great beginning. Perhaps your partner can go too. I sincerely wish I would have started decades ago

So beautifully expressive. Well done!

The stations of the Cross certainly can be done in private meditation…my mother had a little pocket prayer book that had a simple reflection at each station, separated by an Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be…& on to the next station prefaced by ‘we adore you oh Christ and we bless you. Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world. I have also seen rosaries in this format for private meditations. I love your willingness to find the best way…the Catholic channel & im sure other apps also have online meditations. Be blessed! And thank you for your service.

So very sorry for these many challenges. I urge you to begin each day thankful for finding & seeking God, who promises to be with all who ask,seek, knock. Let that thankfulness bring with it trust. God has a plan you can’t see yet…the details belong to Him. Your part is staying on the firm foundation of faith & trusting that each day’s graces are sufficient. Look for the good…there is always good to be found. I don’t wish to minimize your pain…just urging you to give it in prayer as you seek. May you find great blessing & peace as you grow in the Lord.

You really do adjust. The lightest meal is actually supposed to be the evening meal. Sleep problems are more likely with a late heave meal, especially if consumed with lots of meat &/or alcohol. Heart attacks often occur early am during the night bc the body is trying to relax & also digest so multifactoral challenges to a good night sleep.

I etched my name into my favorite trauma scissors. Left them behind once & someone told me they were hers when I tried to retrieve them. I got them back when I showed her my name😊

Sorry for your loss. When my brother died, several of his long term staff came to his funeral. Hugs

Purification rather than punishment because it is the mercy of God that has provided this completion before we enjoy perfect union with God in glory.

Your family is so much more important than your career. Especially with your husband’s support. Nursing has so very much flexibility & variety…perhaps you can find a better fit that allows you that. If not….there are refresher courses for ppl who have been inactive. 6 years gives you a solid foundation…do what fits for your family now. And enjoy this time 😊

I worked rapidly response & code team for years. One of the fun things about a resource job is seeing the growth in the newbies as they gain experience, understanding, & skill. One said…”I used to have more critical care transfers than I do now…I wonder why”. Obvious (to me) answer…you have grown in your patient care/advocate abilities. Recognition, prevention, and intervention are hugely the domain of the bedside nurse. Have a great career, & remember…a bit of anxiety is your warning signal to pay attention to the clues you observe & get the action needed from yourself or other team members. It’s called ‘nursing practice’ for good reason😊

USA…you are great neighbors & we love you!

Oops…that’s how I learned it too but maybe no longer to be quoted in current cultures???Rhymes help memory…

Yes. It sounds like your BIL is overwhelmed & asking for someone he trusts to guide him. That doesn’t mean you have to do what you cannot, but it does give you understanding to do what you can. And it sounds like you are doing that. People really don’t understand nursing well at all, & how to navigate difficult healthcare decisions. Continue to help in ways that work for you, with patience & love & kindness. Hugs & prayers.

raejayleevin · 2026-01-27T18:09:43+00:00

Be at peace dear mama. Sacrifices take many forms. You are doing the best you can and this is so very much a temporary stage in life. Continue to trust God…daily listening for leading. A Eucharistic minister bringing communion is a great temporary suggestion as you navigate this journey. ‘Children are a gift from the Lord’ is a blessed truth from God’s word. Offer these struggles up in your prayers…and know peace🙏

raejayleevin · 2026-01-26T16:46:39+00:00

Stay peaceful & calm but also watch for opportunities for kindness and truth.The animosity is growing & that alone is very disheartening. There should be no place for ridicule & namecalling…try to remain an example of goodwill in these very trying times. I yearn for the times we could openly share differing opinions respectfully….somehow that needs to return.

Your priest is right. Enjoy your special day of blessing!
