You should be proud of them.  You were helping others out by working in those fields.  Why don't you want to go back and continue working in them?

I had a hard time sticking babies and children. It just wasn't the field for me. People hated seeing me, because they don't like their blood drawn. I admire all medical professionals because they are special people but I just can't do it.

I remember they wanted me to draw blood on someone in the operating room while they were doing surgery and I almost passed out.

I thought I was going to cry the first time I had to ask the nursing staff at the hospital to stick my daughter...She was almost two days old and I suspected she was borderline jaundiced...and I had to fight them to get them to do it...but they did it, and it turns out I was right.  She stayed in the bili lamps for a day, and then she was ready to go home before I was.  Everytime she has to get a shot, or we have to check her iron levels at checkups, I verge on tears.

But its necessary.  Think of all the people whose lives you made better by swallowing that feeling and drawing their blood.  I understand, though, feeling like you can't do it.  A few years back I had to give myself injections in my stomach for an illness.  I cried the first time, and squirmed everytime I loaded up that syringe...but I did it, because I had to.  And I have respect for people who do it on a daily basis...like the ones who have to test their blood sugar and take insulin, or nurses or phlebotomists who can hit that perfect vein everytime.  Its a gift.

All I am saying your the one crying about people being mean to you and not respecting you blah blah...if you want it earn it and quit complaining about people not giving you respect that you obviously haven't earned

It is on a much deeper level than this, I am not crying about your behavior, I am pleading with you people to change because the end is near. I am begging you people to be nice to one another because I am so worried what you will do when the end comes, when you are already doing the things you are doing now.

Watch some movies: I AM LEGEND and THE ROAD, this is what I am so worried about. I really hope you people do not ever get like this. I don't want to be here when it happens. It freaks me out and people just really worry me.

Another good thing to watch is the TV Special called Earth 2100...it confirms  all of the bad things I was thinking when I was 16.

You can find it on Youtube...just type in Earth 2100.

I see:

No cops, No jail, No government, No electricity, No food, NOTHING!! People killing like crazy, dead bodies everywhere (to many to clean up) Blood stench for miles.

The end of days is here...people will go into your house and stab you to death and take all your food, and not think anything of it.

I guess the warnings I give fall on deaf ears, so all I can do now is pray.

I hope it never happens in my lifetime. God be with you all!

It is on a deeper level, that is why the insults and hate and out right meaness on this forum, in life, on the news just really disturbs me.

If I wasn't worried about what you people will do when this happens, all the name calling would be laughed off BUT: when it effects the entire civilization, I feel I need to step up and say...

HEY! CAN I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE.




OK...I think I have stopped laughing finally.  Its posts like these that lead people like Falconer to tell you to get back on your meds.....Again not being mean but common your ranting like a maniac.  There is not a thing you can do about people being mean Marie ( even though I don't see where anyone is being mean other than when you provoked it) there are mean people everywhere your not going to change the world by posting on FC.  I don't see how what we might or might not do if and when the world comes to an end has anything to do with your own behavior and personal attacks against other members.  What might possibly happen in the future to civilization has no bearing on your acting civil now.  I know I as well as others have tried on numerous occasions to be civil with you, a lot of people have even stuck up for you only to get bitten by your attitude.  I think you should seriously take a look at yourself before you judge others that are responding to your own attacks.  I see a lot whats good for the goose is NOT good for the gander with you.  Why do I even bother..you will never try to see things from other peoples points of view before you form your opinion that everyone hates you.

I bet you wont be laughing when it happens!

It was not the idea of the end of the world I found humorous but your post in general.  Please don't twist my words to make it seem like I would find the despair of others funny or that I am naive enough to think it cant or wont happen.  I found your entire post funny not the topic of it.

All it takes is one person to change, and that changes the world.

If you really believe this then why do you continue to attack people no matter what they say?  It only takes one person to change but that person isn't you right? My point is if this is something you really believe in then change your own ways rather than preaching it to others and not following your own advice.

Quote
I was defending myself and treating them the way they treated me, maybe that will help them understand what it is like.

The victim card doesn't work when you start the personal attacks for no apparent reason other than your own entertainment.  Do you really think people are blind and cant see you starting crap with people and trying to provoke them?  As for your need to defend yourself its beyond me why you think you need to defend yourself to anyone online. The problem here is your treating others how you THINK they treated you because your not reading the whole statements and picking out a few words of their posts and twisting the words to make it a personal attack against you. But whatever continue to live your pipe dream that the world will change without you doing anything to help support your own words.  I am done wasting my time today with this pointless derailing of the thread yet again.

Yeah that is tuff. i had to stick newborns less than hours old, it got to me. Does she do well with shots? I am just asking because I think sometimes it hurts the parent worse than the child, go figure.

My dad has to give himself insilin shots and check his blood sugar and I feel bad for him, I couldn't imagine having to do that...sounds painful. I don't know if I ever could do that, stick myself with a needle, it would be tuff, I am strong but not that strong.

Oh she screams her head off and then after, as long as I hug her and sing to her, she's fine.  She just sniffles a bit.  There is one nurse at the pediatrician's office that sticks her kids herself...she knows they need the shots, and she figures its one of the things she can do for them as their mother.  I'm not that strong.

And giving the shots subcutaneously personally...not that bad.  Stings a little bit, but the mental thing hurts worse than the physical.  You would be surprised at the things you could do if you had to.

Atheists can celebrate lots of things like uh... Not being dead. That's always awesome. Then there's 2 dollar drinks, Hooters wet t-shirt contests, chocolate... See! Lots of stuff.

That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.

You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into in the first place.
