Welcome to The ER......Where Everyone Knows Your Name ......N "Sighs"

Dear Big Sis
You should never ask a ER nurse about their sick sense of humor. lol.


These are some of my favorites from the ER :
-Discussing dismemberment over a meal seems perfectly normal
-You like to spend the holidays with your friends at work.
-You believe that a good tape job will fix anything.
-Your idea of a good time is a full arrest at shift change.
-You believe in a serial spraying of Prozac.
-You say to yourself "Great veins" as you pass by perfect strangers.
-You believe that "stupid" should be a diagnosis.
-You think caffeine should come in IV form.
-Your bladder expands to the size of a Winnebago's water tank.
-Your immune system is so well developed that it has been known to attack squirrels in the back yard
-You've held a 14 gauge needle over someone's vein and remarked "There's only going to be a little pain-this will only hurt for a second."
-You hope there's a special place in Hell for the inventor of the call light
-Your sense of humor seems more "warped" each year
-You think pizza, cookies, and a coke make a balanced meal
-You believe that saying "It can't get worse: causes it to get worse just to show you it can

-You have a recurring nightmare of being hit & run over by the portable x-ray machine
-You've bet on someone's blood alcohol level
-You believe the ER waiting room should have a Valium salt lick
-You know it's a full moon without looking at the sky
-You believe not all patients are annoying, some are unconscious
-You can only tell time with a 24 hour clock.....
-You notice that you use more four letter words now than before you became a nurse
-You can intubate your friends at parties
-You don't get excited about blood unless it's your own
-You live by the motto, " to be right is only half the battle, to convince the physician is more difficult."
-You've told a confused patient your name was that of your coworker and to HOLLER if they need help

Smile ...........................Love you

Foot note...........these are just jokes, ER nurses are truly devoted to their patients and we cry with our patients and their families.

Big Sis
If you walked into our ER I would just pick up phone and call anesthesia and say "Guess Who Is Here?" I would just have the experts do your IV's.
I agree with you as I have been the patient in my own ER and it is no fun. I always did like putting in the big IV's thow..............hee hee
I will give you a story later about ER snafus.
Love ya
Lil Sis

Hey Big Sis,
I am certified to and they let me be on a jury???? I checked yes in the box for mental health illness but added a note I wanted to serve and it was good for me.
You need some help moving...........are you moving closer to MN?
Love yeah
Lil Sis

OK, well I don't blame you for loving your country. My great-grandparents were French Canadians who ended up in Wisconsin on a little island that is named French Island.
I am glad to see you online today, it is nice to know your feeling up to puting
Love ya,
Lil Sis
