I've often wished I could say something like, "I know you wanted your water with no ice and someone goofed and brought you ice water, but the patient next door just drew her last breath and I hadn't known it was that close so her family wasn't with her and now I have to call her husband and tell him the love of his life is no longer in this world and apologize that he didn't get to hold her hand as she went. When I am done with that and I've mopped up my face I will try to bring you iceless water." Later, I realize that the icewater patient is also facing his last days and asking for iceless water is a pretty small request from his point of view.Onlythemanagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06531176840769484642noreply@blogger.com
