Sweet little old ladies

Friday, March 28th, 2008

Toward the end of Sunday service, the Minister asked, ‘How many of you have forgiven your enemies?’

80% held up their hands.

The Minister then repeated his question.

All responded this time, except one small elderly lady.

‘Mrs. Neely?’; ‘Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?’

I don’t have any.’ She replied, smiling sweetly.

‘Mrs. Neely, that is very unusual. How old are you?’

‘Ninety-eight.’ she replied.

‘Oh, Mrs. Neely, would you please come down in front & tell us all how a person can live ninety-eight years & not have an enemy in the world?’

The little sweetheart of a lady tottered down the aisle, faced the congregation, and said,

‘I outlived the bitches.’

“Anyone who thinks they’re important is usually just a pompous moron who can’t deal with his or her own insignificance and the fact that what they do is meaningless and inconsequential.”

I’m not the doctor

Friday, March 28th, 2008

But, putting a patient with chronic, stage 4 kidney failure on 600 meds is probably not a good plan.

I am exaggerating a little, but my patient is on at least 20 medications right now. This person has CHF and chronic renal failure. Yeah, how are most drugs excreted? You guessed it, through the kidney. It just drives me bonkers that they put people on so much medication. Doctors don’t seem to want to take the time to check all the meds and they just keep giving more and more.

On a happy note, it is Friday and Penelope and I are going out tonight!! In all actuality, I am looking forward to starting my new clinical next Monday. I just like to complain about all the stupid shit that people do.
