Kenna Morton's Journal, 06 Sep 21

I took a friend in to the ER last night and while I sat in the waiting room while she was being processed all I heard was complaints, and whining and bitching. About the wait times, etc. it was so disheartening. My medical brothers and sisters are working past their endurance, working more hours than they ever thought possible. Tired and scared for their own families. Understaffed, overcrowded. The picture is just another day at the office in my hospital where I worked. — a level 1 trauma and stroke center. Please be kind to them. You have no idea what they are dealing with. My own daughter works in the ER, not a nurse but in registration. She is working 12-16 hours a day 6 days a week and has been for a while.now. Work and sleep. You wouldn’t believe the crap she puts up.

Just a final on this. Daughter and SIL had 2 miserable days with every Cold Symptom ever known to modern mankind. Then they both recovered quickly. It took about a week for her sense of smell to return. A little fatigue, but not bad. She is back to work doing 12 hours a day 6 days a week. They were both fully vaccinated (thank goodness so for them the vaccine worked. They survived, no long hauler symptoms and their lives can go on. And that is a miracle— the vaccine worked. They were not hospitalized, placed on ECHMO, or died. It doesn’t get much better than that. Yea SCIENCE
