Slightly Brusied & A Little Bit Used

Today we had patient, "Joe" who was working in a steel factory who was impaled in his left arm and abdomen by a steel bar. The steel bar performed a partial amputation to his left arm and completely ripped open his abdomen spilling his entrails. When he arrived to us he was in horrible shape; he had no blood pressure, and a weak pulse. After an extent of time and blood loss, you will no longer carry a blood pressure. Judging by his appearance, he lost about 1500-2000ccs of blood. To put this in perspective for you, one cup (8oz) is about 237ccs; which means he lost roughly 6-8 cups of blood. When he landed in our hands, or even before he left the site, an operating room was cleared for him. He was given a few blood transfusions and his insides were stitched and cleaned in an exhausting 9 hour surgery.

I'm not going to be able to post every night like I used to, but I will post frequently. So remember way back, when I told you Mandy kept popping up everywhere? Well, after my departure from the hospital, I still see her everywhere. It's driving me nuts. I caught her staring at Caleigh and me at the supermarket; its raising Caleigh's suspicion... she will kill. So I realized that Caleigh has been talking to her ex boyfriend quite a bit lately... and it's bothering me. I'm not sure what to do about it, I trust her completely, but I'm nervous. Is this normal or am I over thinking it? We've been going strong for almost five months... not even a fight in those five months. I think everything is fine, there is no reason why people can't be friends with their exes (ha. Mandy.) I think she’s pissed because I've become more adapt to showing some kind of emotion; I did what Paul told me to do to. Speaking of Paul, I recently paid off a huge chunk of my student loans with the money he left me. I also moved into a nice upscale condo in the city. It's quite contemporary; it has a chic stainless steel, glass, and very white decor. Caleigh moved in with me, and let me tell you I learned a few new things about her since this move in. One of them is that she is very OCD about how the apartment looks. Heaven forbid you forget to wash a glass (I'm not allowed to leave dirty cups or dishes in the sink) you'll be reprimanded (hey, I kind of like it). But I don't care, I love this new life.
