8. This is great and it is true.

The only thing I can think of that comes close to some of the things we talked about routinely, sometimes just to make it through the shift when it was really bad, was listening to the coroners. All the rest of this is true as well.

I was also a night nurse. I worked the night shift in the ER and then after that years as a night shift ICU nurse. At this point in my life I can say that there are a few things I would really rather forget but will never be able to. The only thing that helps that is knowing you helped the person or their loved ones.

Great read, thanks
