Many of us learn valuable lessons from our patients. I was 36 to learn one early in my career as a nurse. I have 37 her name, but she has influenced the way I treat many other patients.
I was working the 3-11 pm shift at a small hospital at that time. The patient was a 42-year-old woman who had 38 a heart attack. She was expected to stay in 39 for about two weeks before being sent home. She was 40 that she could not see her three young children. We did not 41 children into a hospital in those days.
Every evening, we would 42 our children. I had one daughter and I loved her so much that I could not 43 not seeing her every day. The patient was getting 44 and we both knew it wouldn’t be long before she would be home 45 her little ones again.
About a week later, she 46 me to sit with her for a while. I held her hand and she told me she was 47 and thought she might not see her kids again. I tried to let her know that her 48 so far had been great. It was 10:30 pm, almost time for the 49 of my work. I told her I had to hand in my 50 and that I would come back to her room.
Then I 51 with my friends. It wasn’t until I had got home that I realized I had forgotten to keep my promise. “That’s OK,” I thought, “I will spend 52 time with her tomorrow.”
The next day I was told that she had 53 at midnight. She wanted company and I let her down. She left the world quietly. If I had stayed in her room, would she be home surrounded by her 54 right now? I would never know. What I do know is this: I have 55 every patient’s request since that night.
