Oh boy am I having a hard time with this today! I am taking care of a 39 year old man that is paralized from the waist down. The reason he is paralized is he was beat to a pulp in prison. The REASON he was beat like this is when he was 22 he brutally raped an elderly woman and then bit her nipples off!!!!!!
The thought of it makes me sick, I don't even want to go in his room to take care of him. He looks at me all wierd and says stupid things to toy with my head. I just want to kick him while he is down (god forgive me) but how the hell can anyone do that to an old lady!!!!
My point is this is one thing in nursing that is so hard for me, you have to look past this and take care of the patient but man i am having a REALLY hard time today!
JenRN I have every respect for you as a nurse, remember I said my daughter Brandy was a RN also? She tells me stories too, about some patients, and Doctors..I don't know how you guys do it! So God bless your soul, and hers, and all nurses!!!!
