Thanks, SPH, I'll read it.

My wife had a patient a few weeks ago who was a 70-ish widow, whose adult children had kidnapped her out of her front yard and brought here there to be treated for depression.

The woman was completely out of sorts, and couldn't understand what was happening to her. Since she was gardening at the moment of her kidnapping, she didn't have a change of clothes - and wasn't even wearing a bra.

After her shift, my wife went to a store and bought her clothes and clean undies, and took it back to the hospital for the night shift to give it to the lady. When she called back to check on her the next morning, the uncaring shift workers couldn't be bothered to even check to see if the patient had received the items.

I've gone from thinking of nurses as heroes, to ZEROES

Most of the caring nurses left their jobs because it’s turned into something we don’t recognize. The nurses left are either stone cold or have managed to survive the jab mandates and the stressful conditions out of necessity for an income.

That's horrible.

I used to know a lot of nurses. Not one, not a single one, would have been so heartless.
