Open Heart Surgery Care Package

Nurses

From the series: "Small Bites"

Today I read "
La Vanguardia" over breakfast, which is rare (see "La Vanguardia" and breakfast outside the home). And in Section The Counter appears an interview signed by Lluís Amiguet made to a lady called Antonia Pons Carré. I do not know who is this lady. I search Google and see who is writing. Vale. What he writes and what he says, in general, in the interview, I care little or nothing but I called attention to the contents of a box must be assumed Amiguet written and reads as follows: "often discover Women who are worth more than his men and I wonder what not to seem self-limiting smarter, educated and capable than them. Do not want to be a doctor but the nurse, nor the employer, but his secretary, and the Nobel Prize, but his faithful assistant. ". By the way, I would say that there are missing some question marks, but now that anyone can write on paper, air, nothing happens ...

I agree with the general idea, but I bounced to a poignant phrase: why not want to be a doctor but the nurse (the absence of question marks is respect for the literal, I can not attribute to me.)

is common, ignorant and uncertain the idea that the nurse is a medical advances, a doctor incomplete, and stopped halfway . Nothing is further from the truth: neither in the professional reality of nursing, or personal and intimate reality of hundreds of thousands of nurses, or the perception of patients. Just throw a few days as customer a hospital, especially if you are fucked, to discern the essential role of the nurse and physician, and not only that: no impairment at all the excellent work of doctors and their own professional space necessary, patients who amount to the altar without hesitation is to nurses. Because when one is made crumbs in a hospital bed, the design of the process of healing, healing engineering, so to speak, is something the doctor, but the quality of life of the patient-well-understood as humanly possible in the circumstances, word of encouragement, a gentle smile, the affectionate nickname, healing and repair business, is entirely in the hands of the nurse.

I am married to a nurse, I think I've ever said. Validísima aunt, with a very high academic training and, in short, a high professional level. I am out of augmentative. Is it wrong for me to say, but I care a fuck. My wife comes from a working family of Aragon established in Barcelona, \u200b\u200bwhich, based on work like donkeys, do not ever missed anything while development took Franco and fully integrated into an expanding middle class. The older brother of my wife is a doctor, wanted to be and it was. The little sister of my wife is a biologist, wanted to be and it was. My wife would have to be an engineer, architect, doctor, lawyer or economist, has intellectual furniture for any of these things and his family had been able to afford their studies and those of other children, with effort, but without having to face hardships epic. But my wife wanted to be a nurse and it was. And this, with small and, for that matter, anecdotal variations, is the story of most of the nurses, vocational professionals and the top of a pine also often have to endure being treated as housewives by slag MBA much 9,000 euros to 300 hours to 80 per 100 necessary presence of (and little else) they would not know to find the toilet seat (which, above, the fucking bastards are ruining public health, that will to speak slowly someday.)

The Amiguet in question also refers to the Nobel Prize and faithful assistant, also has an example opposite: a woman called María Slodowska. But now that's an exception to the rule, so much so that many readers do not realize the identity of who I'm talking about, since the whole world knows ... by her married name:
Marie Curie, who received the physics prize for his important studies on radioactivity. Although it is true that her husband, Pierre, was not properly his assistant but a valuable contributor to the forefront.

However, Amiguet, Mr. Journalist, before referring to nurses as medical halfway take a good look at the number and quality
important halfway of their own profession .
