Hi Ruth,
This is a wonderful idea. Thank you for sharing your blessings.

A little about me
I am a Retired R.N. that specialized in Obstetrics. I love delivering babies and welcoming them in Jesus' name into the world. I want to share my very first experience seeing a baby Born so many years ago.

I was very young, barely legal, in my last year of college to get my degree in Nursing.
It was my rotation through the obstetrics unit. I was fortunate to rotate through a large medical center. The Nurses knew I was very excited to see a baby born so they came and got me when one was ready. I was so happy, and excited. They placed me as close to the mother as I could get without being in the way. When the baby started coming out, oh my, it was truly a religious experience. I mean it is branded on my soul forever. I knew I would never see anything else in this life that was more wonderful and awe inspiring. I think I was holding my breath. I remember gasping " I have got to do THIS for a living. The Head nurse heard me and later asked me if I was serious about wanting to do Obstetrics for a living. I told her "Oh Yes" She gave me a job right there and then and told me to report after I graduated.I know what it feels like when people take drugs to get high. For my whole career, every time I delivered one I got an incredible rush of awesome wonder. There were times when the news was not good. But the good news was awesome.. To hear that first cry. To experience holding that tiny life in my arms, never over thirty some years never got old. If you know anyone who are young, in nursing, and wants and experience that will never get old, tell them to try obstetrics.

I am sorry to hear about your canary SOML. I worked in med-surg while I was a student to pay my way through nursing school.

When I was seventeen and eighteen, I worked at the nursing home down the street from me in the evenings after school 2-3 hours for pocket money. I loved working with the seniors. Some of them were very sporty. After I became a nurse, I would help out there on the weekends if they were short.

I started out as a nurses aide at a nursing home in HS, and after I sent my kids to school, worked in a NH again.

Later on I got into Visiting Nursing and then finished my 35 year career with doc office jobs...all adult medicine

Hello everyone. I'm praying for you all. God bless.

 

[Handmaid for Jesus]

A friend of mine visited me Thursday night, and when she got ready to leave my beautiful pet tabby cat ran outside before I could catch her. She ran from me, and would not come to me. Friday morning about 730 I found her body by the peach tree in my back yard. She was about 7 years old. I was home alone, but one of the brothers in my church came over to help me bury her. I know this is not a prayer request forum, but I needs some prayers to move on. I thought to get by without telling you all this, but today is just bad.

Awwww, Gail, sorry about your little canary I remember when our "Tweety" started to get old, it was sad, he would just sit all huddled up and not sing.

Kathy, my mother used to be an NA, she loved it and her patients adored her. I love the medical field,but, I don't think I can do it now, mainly due to my back and neck issues, so, the best I can hope for is to be able to be a receptionist in a medical office, at least I can talk some to the patients.

Awww geee, Handmaid, I am soooo sorry about your little kitty, gosh, how horrible, I will say a little prayer for you. It will hurt for some time, but eventually, the sting will leave, I know when my "Suki Kitty" died many years back, guess it is was 1996, I thought I would never stop hurting, but, I did, however, to this day, I still miss the little bugger.

Well, gotta scoot, will be thinking of you all.
