The amazing nurse Kim, author of Emergiblog and creator of new Change of Shift: A Nursing Blog Carnival, has a new blog Scared to Health.
Kim began Scared to Health upon the recent discovery of her husband's diabetes which forced him to the hospital with a gangrenous gallbladder. For anyone who has cared for a love one struggling with an illness her post Wake Me Up Inside is a must read. Kim gives us a glimpse as to what we as family and friends go through (I can also add that those of us who experience illness/injury/surgery also go through the same emotional cycle).
"I bought my elderly cat Tasha special cat food. She’s been dead for eight months."
We try to stay strong and steadfast in the face of others but inside we tend to fall apart. This unraveling has a way of showing itself though no matter how hard we try to keep things together.
Thank you Sally! :)
