So many times when I get to the hospital I find out that one of my patients has been discharged today for some reason I decided to check in before lunch I check the schedule and one of my buddies was taken off the schedule explain to them I roll and I was talking with mr. M he told me he was going home or at least someplace else and I said well it's a step in the right direction he just better not be one step forward two steps back and you said absolutely not because I'm moving forward and that's what I plan on doing continuing to do I said to him well this is goodbye good luck and best wishes he shook my hand and said thank you very much for everything and don't take it personally but I hope I never see you again I laughed and I said there is a support group that meets here at the hospital he says yes I do remember hearing about that exit so maybe we will see each other at one of the support groups if I had waited to go up there after lunch it would have been the typical situation that he was discharged 30 minutes ago there was no reason for me to go up there before lunch today I just felt compelled to do so and I am so glad I did.

When I met with the other patient I met her her family members as well her daughter and she thanked me for stopping in and just chatting with her mother and I said well staff don't have time to do it and all I have is time and it's absolutely my pleasure to just chit chat for a few minutes and she said bless you for what you do I was so humbled by my experience today both families of both individuals were chuckling do to see my silly comments I so love what I'm doing I know the patients are getting as much out of it as I am but boy it's really beneficial to me.

Be blessed and be a blessing
