Vivian- Thank you so much for your comment, I think it is great that you want to help. I was planning on coming home and sending a bunch of stuff over to them. In the weeks to come I will post the hospitals address with a list of things that are needed. I really appreciate your support! thanks :-)

Hello all, Today was one of the most intense days I have had yet. In my previous post I spoke of a woman who needed her catheter changed (which it was), she fell into a coma last Friday, and died this morning. Its really weird, I have never had a client die on me before. I also went to physical therapy with one of my clients who had a stroke which has affected her left side. I have never NEVER heard a woman in so much pain in my entire life. It sounded like she was being attacked. She held my hand so tight as the doctor was moving her leg screaming "ABENEA SEWA!!!, SEVER PAIN!!" she repeated this over and over again, looking into my eyes and crying. I assured her that she was doing good, and that i was proud of her but it was really intense. I go back to my office and one of the other interns had a client die on her today as well. Both families were very upset and needed our attention. I cant help but wonder, would these people have died if they had the proper medical equipment? I am mostly numb right now. I can still hear my client screaming my name.
I need sometime to myself to process all this, and it is hard because there are people everywhere. Today the interns and I went out to dinner after work, which really helped. It was good to get out and walk around. I was so involved with her family, and now I will never see them again not because I was saying goodbye, but because she said goodbye. I just realized in this profession that I have chosen for myself, since I do want to work in a hospital I am going to have a lot of people die on me. These people will die when the are ready, not when I am ready SO I guess I am going to have to learn how to deal with it.
