No one is complying with their medication treatment...

No one is following up with the specialty-care providers I refer them to...

My smokers are still smoking...

I have patients following up on emergency room visits even though they left the emergency room against medical advice...

I've thrown one touchdown pass today, and the rest of the time, I'm getting sacked...

something to bring pleasure to Aristus. I didn't listen to it! I know better than that when dealing with earworms.

You have to know what to click on.

You are not responsible for them. They and they alone are responsible for themselves. Stop beating yourself up because they choose to be self destructive a-holes.

You helped a human being today; that's more than a lot of people do in a life time. You didn't get sacked; the a-holes sacked themselves.

Be as kind to yourself as you are to others.

You can’t do it all.

Some of your offense if working.
Maybe just thinkin the season isn’t over yet will help ya get by. Till Friday pm anyway. There’s more games to win. Tougher opponents but more games.

see, as I just told another DUer, I don't complain much these days about work because I remind myself of what medical folk are going through and tell myself to suck it up! Also, so many people are out of work.

I would rather have been here on DU.

Everything looks brighter through clean windows and clean screens.
