I'm thinking of turning vegetarian.

Meat does not look as appetizing to me as before ever since I started my attachment in the hospital yesterday.
The clinical instructor was showing my classmates and I a few pictures of pressure ulcers turned bad and open wounds that are not healing.
They look really bad, one of them especially, because it is gaping at the stump and you can see clearly the bone and muscles.

The clinical instructor had to add enthusiastically that the muscles look like ti bak (pork meat).
Ever since that picture was shown I stopped eating meat if I had a choice and I have a queasy feeling when I consume pieces of minced meat that are mixed among my vegetables.

I wonder when is the day that I will feel carnivorous again.

Anyway I do not recommend that you search for pictures regarding pressure ulcers if you love your meat.

I feel really good about work today because a lot of my doubts have been resolved.
I always wondered if I seriously had the stomach to be a nurse.
After today, my conviction to want to be a nurse is increased telling from the amount of satisfaction I get from helping the patients.
It is very uplifting to be able to talk to patients and feed them food and help them change their diapers and shift them around in bed to make them comfortable etc..
Do you understand what I am saying?

Even thought they might not be responsive or aware of the environment or whatever we're doing to them the satisfaction of being able to help others is sooo.. relieving.

I sound Very Gay.
