Life Saver

So it feels really good to feel like you've saved a life, or at least prolonged it, and it did feel comforting that both of my little patients wouldn't have been too bad off to go the other way. It gives you a kind of secure feeling to realize that to lose them wouldn't be in their worst interest, but the fact that you did keep them going to see another day is kind of a pat on the back (and less paperwork). I think I might really like to be an ICU nurse, or maybe even ER.. Although, a lot of my experiences where I interfaced with ER lately have been annoying, but I would do a better job (hopefully). Anyway, life as a nurse is good.
