I go back to work tomorrow and I was getting nervous...I've been eating like there's no tomorrow- cookies, ice cream, you name it. However my boss called today and I told her my concerns that I've forgotten things, short term memory loss, ect and she said she thinks I'm the best nurse they have and my best when I come back will probably be better then the people she has now ... That made me chuckle

Hope all goes well!

Best wishes for tomorrow! You will be fine, you are taking you're meds, sleeping & feeling much better. You have worked very hard getting to this point. Be very proud of yourself for that.

Being a nurse for 23 yrs myself, you will probably be pleasantly surprised at how quickly things fall into place. You've had all the training & experience in this job, auto-memory can be a beautiful thing!

If you need to take it slow that's ok, take some deep breaths & plow on!
I know you can do this, I can tell it from your posts.

Looking forward to hearing from you tomorrow.

It's a big day, dijmart, but one you've worked hard for. I'm betting it all goes well for you. As kindachaotic said, auto-memory will kick in if you relax & let it. After all, your entire body knows your job!

Hugs & very best good & powerful thoughts to get you thru. .

Hey all, thank for all the replies. Work went well...very good actually. I took deep breaths, stayed in the moment and remembered "auto-memory". I had no problems. I feel like I have my life back, going back to work was the last piece of the puzzle to me recuperating from this past "episode"....

Thanks for the support! ((hugs))

Yea, dijmart!!! So glad to hear this! That auto-memory is amazing, isn't it? (I used to work at a restaurant for instance, and would sometimes think I would forget how to do so much, even down to how to pour coffee(!!!) Which I knew to be ridiculous, but that didn't stop the thoughts. It was always re-assuring when that auto-memory kicked in! )
