"look at your experience here as a mandala, Chapman. Work hard to make something as meaningful & beautiful as you can. And when you're done, pack it in & know it was all temporary." OITNB
Thus is my time in ICU. I must move on & appreciate the beauty of it.
It is SO hard! :(

Did you know the word ‘junior’ in Junior Doctor doesn’t mean young or unqualified
It’s simply the term for any doctor who is not yet a consultant or experienced GP
That includes this 40 year old who’s been a doctor for over 10 years
Please RT if you think everyone should know
Just part of the huge variety of things we deal with in #ClinicalResearch! 🤣

My A levels got me into medical school … 3 years in I realised it was not my calling. After 27 years with a BA and MSc in IT I needed to feed my heart and now 8 years and a BSc later I am still loving being a nurse!
Not a fallback … nursing is a choice for me.
