It was shocking to see all the infants there with no family visiting for my entire 8 hour shift.Jodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10073613592950338092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6992134.post-1121598524094650172005-07-17T06:08:00.000-05:002005-07-17T06:08:00.000-05:00I worked in a nursing home, I have two kids.

I'm surprised that you never commented on my post called <A HREF="http://rhodester.blogspot.com/2005/07/ralph-adams.html" REL="nofollow">Ralph Adams</A>, given your profession, but maybe you didn't read it. I'd be interested in your analysis of the events and feelings described, given that it's a true account even though I used it as my entry in <A HREF="http://lornacr.blogspot.com/2005_07_01_lornacr_archive.html#112088452876323675" REL="nofollow">Lorna's recent contest</A>.<BR/><BR/>I virtually had no feedback on it, and I'm thinking that the subject matter is just too dark and depressing. Maybe I should stick to the lighter side of things?Rhodesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01520791456834075671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6992134.post-1121464162319739002005-07-15T16:49:00.000-05:002005-07-15T16:49:00.000-05:00Hi Jodie,I can relate to your comments on the clas...Hi Jodie,<BR/><BR/>I can relate to your comments on the class reunion. I've only had one, and that was the 20 year. There were lots who did not even bother to show up and I have to wonder why? Can they not let go of their childhood, or do they just not wish to revisit it?<BR/><BR/>Anyway, as for the children and how they are treated. You are SO right. They depend on adults for everything and are very sensitive to adult moods and feelings.<BR/><BR/>Hopefully the tech will be assigned to something more to her liking.<BR/><BR/>Give me poo anytime. vomit...now that would wait for housekeeping..LOLLeannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03928537274114663807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6992134.post-1121448567686120122005-07-15T12:29:00.000-05:002005-07-15T12:29:00.000-05:00OMG - I can't believe you live in OKC!
