I have enjoyed my medical career.

After 46 years of nursing it was time to retire and I retired my license as well.

I will always be thankful for all the types of nursing I was able to participate in.
Thank you for your sacrifice!
 
I was at the Dermatologists office today with DH for his latest round of MOHS. The resident working with the surgeon was a male ICU nurse who was working towards his D.O. specialty in dermatology. We were yacking away about our careers and I got to watch them do the suturing on my husband's 2 inch wound. Afterwards I told the resident that one of the things that would have lured me away from nursing and into becoming a doctor was being able to suture people up. I'd always found it fascinating, especially while working OB as a scrub nurse all those years ago. He admitted that was one of the reasons he chose to specialize in dermatology. He considered plastic surgery but it would have take 7 more years of study. With Derm he could carve, whittle and stitch to his hearts content with only two more years of study ahead of him.

Medicine is a fun career. The human body a wonderous thing, isn't it Cap?

Afternoon everyone. DH came through his latest surgery fine. Lots of sutures and he is still blessedly numb at the moment so he's feeling no pain.

Hope everyone is having a great afternoon.
I thank all medical people for their service. We know how hard it can be.
 
My DIL and GD went shopping with me, and also saw SeaQuest! What a great place, i love seeing all of those animals!
