April 13: It should be a full moon


Busy day at work: ER is full with cases requiring my urgent attention: chest pain, asthma exacerbation, possible stroke, pneumonia.

N is an adorable patient whose smile and antics brightens my day. He is taking his mask to school for show and tell. He and his mother happily gives me permission to post his photo.


A full clinic day is followed by an evening as crazy as the day: hip fracture, medivac transfer arrangement, life-threatening pneumonia, congestive heart failure.

I, very much a city girl, do take a moment to rush out to see deer roaming by the hospital. I gaze into the night--clear crisp night with gibbous moon. With this kind of patient flow, it should be a full moon.
