NOTHING KILLS ME MORE THAN THE "WHY ME?!!?" QUESTION!!

I saw a patient today who was crying hysterically asking that question. As i hugged her she kept calling her mom...this is a 47 years old woman with 7 children and 8 grand kids. She kept telling me how much she was going to miss them. The cancer started spreading pretty rapidly last month...she now has it in her throat. I hope we find a fucking cure soon!!! It just kills me to see these women in so much pain!!!

i think you should do some research on how long people can stay in a job like that... more than a year or two can NOT be good for you. i realize you're a strong person, way stringer than me, but seriously, this is going to tear you apart.
