Walking around in your old sweaters
Baby you can feel bad if it makes you feel better....
What a weekend....
Friday I went to class then after that to work. Well, I ended up loosing my first patient that we were working on saving. They guy went into cardiac arrest, and really didn't have much of a chance. After working on him for about 20 minutes, the doctor called it. I ended up staying after to help until it slowed down a bit. Well, after that, I was talking to one of the nurses I was working with outside of the XRay Specialty room. Well, earlier, one of the interns was putting in a central line. When they do that, they put a guide wire in, which they then take out after putting in the cathater. Well, the intern ended up loosing the guid wire inside of him. Well they were going to go into the other leg, loop around the guide wire inside of him, and pull it out. I put on the lead vest and was right there watching the doctors as they removed it. They had this crazy video XRay machine in there. I forget what it was called. By the time I left it was around 7:15am. Total time spent at work Friday, 16.25 hours.
Nothing much happened saturday that I can remember. Pretty slow day overall. Total time spent at work, 12.5 hours.
Sunday was kinda bad. I found out I was the only tech after 7. I ended up staying after. I clocked out at 7:30 Total time at work, 16.5 hours.
So this weekend, I spent 45.25 hours of 72 at work. That left me with 26.75 hours to eat, rest, and whatever else I did (mostly sleep...Pretty much only sleep, oh yea, and drive time...)
