I began my journey here based on a simple reference from one of the coordinators of the careextenders program. Who wouldapos;ve thought i could experience so much and feel so much from a simple unit. Here i shall try to recount those valuable moments, hoping to preserve the original emotions of the time.
the twitching leg: the patientapos;s leg twitched and twitched and twitched. It was almost strange to sit in the presence of someone who could not control the simple motor skills of his legs. Itapos;s a blessing to have the simple motion we do. Surprises come in all colors, and here, the staff was forced to deal with something simple. But you know, the small issues all need quick, critical thinking.
the angiograms/angioplasties: it was such a simple procedure. And as the techs and doctors lead me through the procedure, i began to marvel at medicine. How such a quick simple procedure can reach the heart that keeps us alive. How such a procedure can elongate someoneapos;s chance to live.
the icd/pacemaker: once again, the simplicity marvels me. The beauty of entering the body so minimally and giving someone the chance to live not once but many times over. Whether we have the right to this power, i will never know.
the joint commission: the fear, and the excitement all wrapped into one moment had my blood running. This is not just a job you show up to. It is a job you must perfect. These are lives... And you are constantly being judged.
aids/hepatitis b: i was not afraid. But i felt a sudden bit of tension as i noticed the tension. Gloves were carefully placed, and all of the sudden i become afraid. I treated him kinder to almost compensate the fear. It is still knew terrain, and i feel i have a lot of growing up to do in terms of dealing with the unknown.
the death: this, of all things i experienced, was the most powerful. I still donapos;t know what to say about it. I saw him go from life to death. And the powerlessness i felt... I hope I never have to feel again.
