K is for Ka

noun, Egyptian Religion.a spiritual entity, an aspect of the individual,
believed to live within the body during life
and to survive it after death.


For those that have read my blog previously,
you know that my mother and I have discussions about things
that most people are uncomfortable with...
like living wills and death.

Recently we talked about what she was going to come back as,
just so she could let me know she was doing ok.
"Maybe a hummingbird or a dragonfly."
She told me she was just going to "pinch your toes."

I told her I didn't want to freak out, I just needed some reassurance
that's she's made it to Heaven and everything is good.
She said pinching my toes would definitely send a message.

I'm still trying to convince her to come through as
something less threatening, but
Momma does like to do things her way...

And, I know her spirit will definitely carry on long after she's gone.

#1595 - On Workplace Humor


I get comments every once in a while about patients wondering
why the ED staff is laughing while at work.
Shouldn't you be busy saving lives..?

When you get patients like this:

You sometimes have to laugh.
Of course, I can't post some of the more
life-threatening emergencies we see,
but after a particularly bad code, you
sometimes have to let off some steam.

So, I thought I would again share some of my
favorite medical cartoons...
enjoy...!








And the reason we continue to do what we do
is no laughing matter:

Medical Humor

I've been working a string of nights, and the patient volume has been surprisingly low.  We have had some interesting cases... but, that's not what I want to write about tonight.  I'm on Facebook, and since about 2/3 of my friends are in the medical field, there's a plethora of medical humor that abounds.  I thought I would share some of my favorites.  You may have seen them.  Enjoy!  

Oh, and there's some excitement coming up in the next couple of days... a new member of the family will coming soon...!
