I have been to another funeral of a friend/RN, who died of acute liver failure. Wow. Kim..What happened? I cried when I knew she was at OHSU trying to get a liver, I remembered she was the 2nd person to know that i was having a baby, the next night I worked with her she brought me a baby gift. If Kim was able to fix it she would. She was fun, sometimes to much fun. She allowed you to be silly, carefree, happy, spontaneous all in the same night. She had an enormous about of energy. WOW!!It is funny how people in the medical field strive to fix others, but don't, cant , wont, take care of themselves.
When I heard that she had died, I was mad, i was mad at her for leaving her two kids behind. How could a mother do that! Those kids really loved her and she was the only mom that i had ever met that never yelled at her kids. People might look down on her for this but her son had 11 years of his life, and her daughter only had 9 years with her. Wow you know looking back if I only had 9-11 years with Tanner, I would probably never get mad at him. Look at me I act like my time is guarantee to be longer then hers, but who is to say, who is to decide that, so once again I am reminded to not get worried about small little things. I am working on my list of what is most important. It is harder then what it seems like. Who are the people that I need to call and tell them Thanks or Love you. Are there things that I wish I would have told someone if they died today. I think I can only learn from mistakes. Learning and then allying them to my everyday life.
Amazing Grace Lyrics
by Englishman John Newton
(1725-1807)
"Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.
T'was Grace that taught...
my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear...
the hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares...
we have already come.
T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far...
and Grace will lead us home.
The Lord has promised good to me...
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be...
as long as life endures.
When we've been here ten thousand years...
bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise...
then when we've first begun.
"Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.
