I answer, and it’s Sarah, the charge nurse from the unit.Īllie, your favorite doctor is admitting a patient. Didn’t have a good ending.īree and I are down in the cafeteria, eating supper, and my cell phone rings. He has asked me out several times, but I don’t date doctors anymore. All the nurses would like to have a fling with him. He knows his trauma and is so good at his job.

When he’s on duty, the ER runs smooth as silk. My favorite shift to work is the three to eleven. I’m just a working-class girl money doesn’t impress me. She was one all along she just didn’t know it. She tells everyone I made her a nice person. I guess she thought she had to be a snob. She didn’t realize she would like being a nurse, and she forgot her snobbish ways. She comes from money and thought it would be an easy way to snag a doctor. Bree is the charge nurse and my best friend. I guess it’s because of my mom dying from cancer.Įvery now and then, when we’re not busy on the unit, I work the ER. I don’t know why, but comforting the families and my patients means so much to me. So that’s where I transferred from the ER. That’s where she wanted to die, not at home to remind me where her last breath was taken. They were with me when Mom passed away in the hospice unit.

It had metastasized to her liver and lungs.

A week after I graduated from nursing school, she was diagnosed with uterine cancer. If only she were alive now-I would give anything to have her with me. I wanted to take care of the sick and watch them get well. Growing up, I watched a lot of medical shows my favorite was ER. I want to thank my family for understandingī eing a nurse is all I ever wanted to be.
