I have a ton of "stories". I told myself one of these days I am going to write a book, a collection of sorts, of all the deaths I was a part of. Not as morbid as it sounds. More as a tribute to all the wonderful patients and families I had that taught me so much about life, death, being a nurse, myself. I have some funny stories, some sad, some wonderful. Each chapter would be about a different patient. That's why I believe your encounters with people can be life changing, even if it's brief. I hope all those patients know I still speak of them and learned from them.
