However, I do feel guilty for my occasional "poor planning." I guess my only excuse (and it is, afterall, an excuse) is that with the number of medications I'm on and the fact that some have to be filled every month while others have a 3 month supply, sometimes it is very difficult for me to keep track of what needs to be refilled when! But since you brought it up, I apologize to you in the hopes that my apology will carry over to all physicians I've ever done this to!<BR/><BR/>Hugz and hang in there....We all have times like this...<BR/>Carrie :)NeoNurseChichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16120931307124798416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29955732.post-1153360955743932142006-07-19T22:02:00.000-04:002006-07-19T22:02:00.000-04:00I'm a little late in this ...but *hugs and prayers...I'm a little late in this ...but *hugs and prayers*<BR/><BR/>hope today went well after your rough night on call!Dreaming againhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15717590226520457326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29955732.post-1153354650496104292006-07-19T20:17:00.000-04:002006-07-19T20:17:00.000-04:00Think you should have hung out at the Hawaiian BA ...Think you should have hung out at the Hawaiian BA meeting a little longer, Dr. A!<BR/>Sounds like you had a rough night on call and it impacts you more because you are a caring and considerate doctor.

Your frustrations reveal what a caring human being you are, and (from what I can tell through your writing) a sensitive and intelligent physician. All the bureaucratic (sp?) BS in hospitals can surely make it hard to remember why we went into medicine in the first place. Sometimes I wish I were a simple healer in an earlier time.<BR/><BR/>If you don't have some vacation time coming up soon, then I hope the support of your blogging community is a comfort to you.

It's got to be one of the most demanding, thankless and unforgiving of all professions ... you're not allowed to be human ... have bad days ... be tired ... be in a bad mood ... have a head ache ... have a personal life ... or ... make a mistake. <BR/><BR/>Please hang in there.

Unfortunately, most of the world doesn’t operate that way, and it grinds you down. Please, don’t change. We need compassionate people in health care.
