I've been working some overtime lately on purpose. ER has been slower than usual. I have had more time to actually spend at the bedside with my patients. I really enjoy that.
I talked with a German lady and found myself mesmerized by her accent. She told me stories of her travels and compared things with living in Germany.
One thing she talked most about was getting around in the different cities. In Germany, you don't really need a car. You just get on a bus and go anywhere you want.
Freedom means going where you want without having to drive there.
This lady was very sick when she came in. And much better when we had our conversation. I saw her color get healthier and her eyes brighten as she told me stories of her travels. This is my favorite kind of nursing. The human kind.
Listening is cheep medicine.
