    Mutual respect

    Why waste time with petty obsessions with their fragile hearts still beat with the blood of commoners? I too have a feeling this thread will end up closed.

    NaHCo3 and Atropine in PEA

    Probably from years of seeing HCO3 on blood gases. Also, I have been known to ask what the pt last HCO3 was out of habit. I used to take Hollister shirts and write "3" on them with permanent marker.

    The tattoo looks great. I am so sorry about all that happened. Very few people on the internet can actually bring tears to my eyes, but having observed your loyalty, dedication, and love to her over those months from your forum posts, your exchanges on facebook, etc ..

    Burn victim treatment from an ALS/BLS standpoint
