I know this because no nurse who would actually care for her patient would feel guilty over not being compassionate with her patient. And I agree with the other peeps who commented that we are only human. We can only give as much but there are times when we grow tired. I'm impressed how you could still treat your patient with professionalism even if she's trying to drive you insane. Ma’am May I know that you are a very caring nurse.

I'm sorry you had to go through with that sort of shift, with that sort of person, themselves in an awful situation. But you did your best, and I think all of us out here in blogland can readily see and appreciate that. You did treat her with compassion, May, and she bashed it upside the head.

A patient like that will wear anybody out. If we were saints we could find empathy for everyone, but we are humans trying to do our best. A patient like that will wear anybody out.
