Helper...
AT work,yesterdayI got to be a helper. Our nurse, my former boss, had a gal pass out-stone cold pass out. So the nurse yelled for my help-and I got to be a helper. I put the gal's feet up on a chair, got a cold wash rag, got her some orange juice from the drink machine and ran out to my car for a straw (she needed to stay on the floor while her vitals stablized). In a weird way it was fun. I asked the gal if she had chronic low blood pressure and she replied she did, but she didn't feel this "junky" feeling coming on. The nurse told the gal she called me b/c I'm a C.N.A. and a mom, but I think the nurse also remembered how many times I've passed out- I knew just what to do. Okie-the gal was just fine and I got to feel useful for once.
Tee hee.
More later.
