Another for @Pralina1...
"Nursing can be a dirty business, as I discovered helping my grumpy patient change his colostomy bag. You can imagine the smell. Still, I soldiered on, telling myself to think about the patient's feelings & not let my queasiness show. That all changed when he turned to me, scrunched his nose, and said, "God, you've got bad breath!"

Halitosis, only your best friends will tell you.
And he must have had a very sensitive nose to be able to smell your breath while in the midst of his colostomy perfume.

Believe it or not, "Reader's Digest"! (My Mom's)

Man , there are no words to comfort anyone who knows he is going to OR for a colon resection and a colostomy . At least on now days they came up w some better products . I normally try to act like " listen , could had be worse , at least alive ?" But most patients won't cheer up .
The happiest days are those when someone comes in for a colostomy take down ( back to normal )?
The things we take for granted guys , but all can go poof ! In a blink of an eye !
Happy Sunday to those who have a Sunday , 2 more hrs here , only 29 pts in the waiting room , " thank u Jesus " ??????
