My Nurse Jen

I visit my nurse today
who gives me my injection
she always makes me feel okay
and has a superb complexion

There are other carers there
but Jen's the one I allow to dose
one prior orderly gave me a scare
almost fainted came near close

I'm glad we found each other
now there's no need to fear it
there never is a pother
I've found a kindred spirit

Mine is called Helen, very efficient. Made me feel at ease when I saw how big the needle was. Thank God for efficient nurses. Will see her again in January. ~~

Having a good nurse is always comforting during those times. I've had some in the past that really scared me.

Lucky you! I went for a blood test but the nurse stuck the needle through the vein and left it there as she went screaming down the hall, "No blood! No blood!" and it wasn't even Halloween! Aloha! Rico
