I'm an x-ray tech, don't usually watch shows like ER because I've seen it, seen it, seen it. I was in peds for awhile, worked at a Shriners Orthopedic Hospital for 5 years (I couldn't handle a burn unit). I liked working with the kids but a lot of the parents were just awful, they always knew a hell of a lot more about your job than you did.
How great that you took advantage and went to visit Germany while your sister lived there! My parents (Dad & stepmother)lived in Hong Kong for 10 years, while it still belonged to the British, and I never made it over there. I kept telling myself that I couldn't afford it but I should've begged or borrowed or stolen the money, I should have just gone somehow.
I have one of those brave sisters too, after my son she's the light of my life. She just moved back to Texas from Oahu so I'll be able to see her once in awhile. She says that after 3 years on the island, what's important to her now is family. After emerging from years of depressed self-isolation, I'm starting to feel twinges of that myself...we all used to be pretty dysfunctional but we're starting, each of us in our own way, to get our act together. I hope.
