Ended up working on my day off
Since there was a mix up
We have clinic days for IV therapy.
Extremely graphic reaction
From a French newspaper.
The heat of the abortion ban
Has an ethical dilemma at the core.
No one is talking about it.
Ethics -the Nursing Definition-
Says that you can’t deliver care that
Puts your benefit higher
Than the patient’s benefit.
Or anyone else.
In pregnancy, a person (baby)
Has to put aside the needs of the mother
Second to the needs of the baby.
Even if the mother doesn’t consent.
The fetus then has rights
that no other human has:
To force a person - to make a mother
Use her body to keep someone else alive.
I guess the GOP wants the women
To have already come to this conclusion.
They want every woman
To want every child.
So what they’re really saying is
They want to legislate her morality
So it matches their own.
Also unconstitutional.
People have different beliefs.
They just do.
The First Amendment states it-
But it’s a right. Not something earned.
That why contraception and
Same sex marriage are also
Being brought back into question.
Due Process.
And also the Conservatives
Are really really conservative.
When I was young, like 10-
I told my mother I was in love
with Vanessa Redgrave.
And I wanted to marry her.
My mother said that was impossible.
Because Of Church Beliefs.
Back then, homosexuality was still
Listed as a mental disorder.
My question always was-
But what if I don’t have the same beliefs?
And the answer pretty much was
“Tough shit!” And still is.
We decide as a society
what we want and
what we won’t tolerate.
One week from Austin!
I’m ready for time off.
I’m not ready for a keto convention.
A clinic view.
Not always the sky box. Lol.
I love this vein finder gizmo
Until you get to the
Infamous Fork In The Road.
Then you’re too tired to care.
I didn’t want to get up today.
Even after 9 hours sleep.
Clinic days are always busy.
Yours… barely.
With a fake smile.
I’m in the “Barely Hanging On”
Phase of COVID Nursing.
I don’t see this lasting past October.
It’s been “just one more month” now
Going on 3 years!
“Just hold on for one more month!”
Lies.
At least I made a plan and followed through.
Every shift I work extra
Goes right into a goodie box
For StableCoin.
Bitcoin loses value but not
StableCoin. It’s always pegged to
One US Dollar. And earns 7% interest!
I like to think of it as a little savings account.
