People are truely lovely here. I do appreciate it

Yesterday was no better!! Finished at 5.30, heading out the door and literally as I open the door a client I know really well runs into me with their cat, 6 month old Burmese, most beautiful kitten, just been hit by a car. I rush it up, we work on it until about 6.30 but swelling on the brain was too bad, end up putting it to sleep. Devastated.

Then the girl who was actually meant to still be working gets called to our other practice so I end up dealing with the next emergency and staying until 9.15. Almost a 12 hours shift, and the touch of death striking again. ARGH!!!

Thank you everyone.

I know all the things getting me down (probably bar the job loss!) are par for the course and I guess a bit petty, but it just seems to all come at the same time. Everything I grasp onto to think positive seems to go down the pan! When things get hard I turn to the patients and pour even more emotion into them, I need to stop doing that, seem to have the touch of death at the moment!

ARGH!!

Thank you all

Ditto that! don't let it all get to you! We're all going to see some tough times in the next year or two. Be strong! Try to focus on the good things! It will get better. xx
