My RN Passed away

[GL]

Hi I just got a phone call from some new nurse telling me she is replacing my dear RN Friend Carmen
Carmen passed away over the weekend and I am proud to have been her friend and patient for many years .
We just spoke 1 week ago .
I am sort of choked up and not used to new nurses or people as I am one of those shy country people who stays to myself .

This is very hard I dont know what to say as I am scared and just bummed out she was really a big help in my life yet so young and I am going to just stay to myself for a couple of day's and try to figure things out as now I feel like I will be starting all over .

Carmen if you are watching over know that youre in my prayers and I thank you for being a great friend . I will miss you

Sincerely ; GL Judy

Oh, I am so sorry! I know this transition will be hard to make in so many ways, and I wish you peace and comfort in your grief and a good relationship from the outset with your new nurse. What a tough blow.

I'm sorry to hear that GL. You will miss her.
It seems to be a month of bad news so far.
Dave's aide 3 days a week found out she has throat/neck (?) cancer and has to be at Mayo clinic tomorrow morning. She is only 26 with 2 small kids and another due in March.

Oh Judi, I am so sorry for your loss.

Carmen sounded like a very special nurse and friend. I'm really sad for you.

Thank you all
She has been my nurse for many years , She was a great funny RN who actually would take extra time to help me .

I feel like garbage because yesterday I picked up my phone to call her up and I found out the battery was dead on my cell phone so I had to put the phone on charge .

Out of the blue this other New Nurse called me up just when I posted my topic here and tomorrow she is coming over to meet m and we will have to start from page 1 all over .

I am nervous because I never met this new nurse but I have a million questions and things , worries in my mind .

Thank you all
Sincerely ; Judy

I just felt comfortable with my friend Carmen ...

Judy, so sorry for the loss of your nurse and friend. I am sure with your warm personality you will soon click with your new nurse and begin a new bond. I am sure there are many wonderful things you will always remember about your friend that will forever be in your memory bank.

Wishing you the best luck ahead.
