Crying Over Perfect Strangers...

So, I'm thinking maybe now I'm not cut out for this.

Today, I was down in Brain Injury.

I took care of a 28 year old patient involved in a head on MVA while 8 months pregnant. Baby lived, she lived, but she will never be the same.

They teach you early on not to get emotionally attached. Not to take work home with you.

But, how do you not get upset over a mother who will never live a normal life, or able to hold her babies again.

The thought turns my stomach and makes for a good cry home.

Take my advice, wear a seat belt.
