Last shift...
Bitter.Sweet.Goodbye Helen Devos Children's Hospital
It was my last shift on feb 25, 2013. Boy was it a good one! I had sooo much fun. Steph,jamie,jp,eric,kelly, jen, jess, and two new nurses Cristine and veronica surprised me with food and desert. It was chips and salsa which was very nice of them. The funny thing is that I don't like chips and salsa hahaha, but I was very thankful for this. We did work off course, but we had talks that were funny and sad(work,weddings etc.). They were asking me what im going to miss? what would i change? top 5 patients? worst day at the job? best day of the job? so many questions that i look back at now and realize how much I have grown and experienced in this hospital in just 12 months! I came in not knowing anything about cancer and I leave with so much knowledge, but still seeking and yearning for more and MORE! After the shift was done I had parents who said thank you for caring for there daughter/son during my last shifts/days which meant alot to me. Sometimes we(nurses) feel that we might not be making a difference or change especially during the night shift, but to have a parent wake up to say thank you before I left meant sooo much to me. After the shift was done I went out to eat with all the guys from our floor. jp,eric, and adam. I know only three haha, but we held that floor down! Especially when we all worked together! Soooo much fun to work with them. I was glad to finally eat with them and talk about the girls hahaha just talking with guys is rare in this career, but when you get to it feels great.. I was unable to say goodbye to alot of people which made me sad, but I will definitely visit soon and give them updates about things I have learned. I'm thankful and blessed to be part of that team. I will miss Helen Devos Children's Hospital. Thank you for the memories.
Good bye Grand Rapids Michigan!
NO bitter. NO sweet. just goodbye! hahahaha
Sorry, but I will not miss michigan. I miss my family too much. I was sad/depressed and thought I was suffering from sad (seasonal affective depression) it was always snowing and so gloomy outside. I love snow, but not sooo much that you can't even go out! In my twelve months of living there my favorite time was artprize(wow) and when all of chrissy friends came to visit and we went to get pizza and saw a baseball game.------> that was so much fun. i am not going to miss michigan. BUT i will miss the people i met. Moving to michigan for 12 months I was able to meet my amazing girlfriend gymnastic friends. Now I can officially say they are my friends too. To be their roommate for three months was fun. Hanging out, playing video games, and having people over was fun and I will miss it. La familia of hillcrest drive. lol other than that I am glad to be leaving. Sorry, but im just not a mitten man(michigan is shaped as a mitten) I have nothing against the people who live there and nothing against the state. Its not a boring state, it very bueatiful. i was unable to go to traverse city or makinac island or the upper peninsula, but i did go to grand haven, south bend and st joseph. i will eventually go to upper peninsula one day. goodbye michigan.
