Economic Worries
Main Blog on Oct 31st 2008

ER Prerequisites
Main Blog on Oct 31st 2008
Is it a new prerequisite that patients drink tons of alcohol before visiting the emergency room anymore? We have been busier after midnight than before midnight.
Nothing is more fun than trying to x-ray a drunk. It is more than frustrating. It is embarassing for the family to have to deal with them while they are [...]

Looks like the cooler temperatures are here to stay in Southeast Tennessee. We got our winter clothes out last weekend to wash and sort. This weekend we will get them all put away in our closets and then get out our heated blankets.
