Not I Alone

I had to put this funny picture of Piper up on my blog because wow, that last post was just way too serious and self-righteously angry. And no, I didn't mean to take a picture of Piper licking his chops, it just happened. The delay on digital camera photos (at least the one we have) can be quite deceiving. I keep thinking I'm getting these super cute shots of Piper, and then I end up with one of his forehead, or something.

I also have to mention what a lifesaver the nurses are on my unit. They were there for me the whole way; taking the burden off immeasurably, giving wise counsel, helping my patient while I did a discharge, foley'ing the patient so I could actually go get some lunch, paging folks while I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off. Those nurses rock. It couldn't be a better place to be a new nurse, and I am blessed and lucky to work with them. I'm so , so lucky to have those nurses around me, and so was my patient.
