Mom was getting an IV in the emergency room, we were worried she might have a seizure since there were signs (She was fine in the end). My mom and I were joking with the nurse that I can't look at needles and she asked if I'm prone to fainting. I said I never fainted getting bloodwork so an IV isn't so bad as long as I don't look at it. The nurse just nodded and started working on the line for my mom. I was focusing on some gas tanks on the side and realized I really need to take a sh*t (Later found out that symtpoms of fainting in rare cases may actually make you sh*t your pants). I calmly asked the nurse if there was a bathroom and she just goes "Yea, just behind me!" But she looked up at me and immediately changed her tone of voice "Are you going to faint?" and I'm like "Naaaaaaaaaaah" and it only took me a single step before passing out and faceplanting the door. I'd say that was a major fail on my end. They told me it was perfectly normal and I thought the nurses were just saying that to cheer me up, but while I was given crackers and some water to gain back some strength, a six foot tall body builder next to me passed out from getting an IV himself. They weren't kidding...

When I got out of my bottom braces, I was given a retainer. At first, I thought that one of the the things equipped to the retainer was the retainer itself. It did not fit on me, so I had to drive up to Colorado Springs to get it fit. It turned out that I was trying to wear the mold of my bottom teeth, and that the retainer was on top of it. I did get Chinese food after though.

I have failed at a lot, marriages, life, parenting, you name it. BUT I refuse to let it get to me because now that I'm older I realize that I DIDN'T fail at any thing, I just made mistakes, My marriages, I didn't fail, they did, they broke the promises, I tried to make it work, it didn't but I learned what I want in life and now I have the perfect fiance, perfect as in exactly what I want and need. Life, it took me almost 40 years to buy my own home and get my finances in order, but I learned and now I own my own home and am killing it. Parenting, they don't come with a manual. But now that my kids are grown / late teens, I see what amazing human beings they are and I know I did something RIGHT. Ex: my Oldest - 19 just bought someone gas the other day just to pay it forward and that man told her "your momma sure raised you right God bless you." So in the end we don't FAIL we make mistakes and its what we choose to learn from them. I didn't fail... I succeeded at finding what didn't work.

Hope this helps - What's the best thing about Switzerland? I don't know, but their flag is a huge plus. Where do you find a cow with no legs? Right where you left it. Why aren't koalas actual bears? They don't meet the koalafications. Never criticize someone until you have walked a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you'll be a mile away, and you'll have their shoes. Two men meet on opposite sides of a river. One shouts to the other, "I need you to help me get to the other side!" The other guy replies, "You're on the other side!" I used to be addicted to soap. But I'm clean now. Let me know if you want more

As a teenager, I worked in fast food. One night, while cleaning up, I dropped a cup into the French fry machine that I had just turned off. I reached all the way to the bottom to get it before realizing what I was doing. I, instantly, took my arm out and stuck it in the ice machine before pain took over. My arm turned brown but didn't blister and slowly peeled off. I got the cup though ! A few years later, my younger brother did the same thing making donuts.

Try rolling to your side and getting up on your hands and one knee first. Having something to pull yourself up with helps also (example, if you are unsteady and use one, having a walker nearby with the wheels locked is good to pull yourself up on).

My dreams. I have a somewhat stable life, but I have had to give up on almost everything I enjoyed to get here. I love to laze, to daydream, to read fiction and to paint. Unfortunately, my job and family duties do not leave much time for me to pursue these things. So, I stay up late at night to compensate. Which impacts my day. FML

I utterly failed at returning to bedside ICU nursing (which I'd done for 22 years) after I spend almost 9 years as a stroke program administrator. When I saw that the care I was trying to provide was potentially placing patients at risk, I came home and sobbed like I hadn't since I lost my first wife.
Then I contacted my manager to arrange a graceful exit from the position.
This was in March. It still hurts, and I'm still job-hunting.

Some things are not like riding a bike. Fair play from taking yourself out of the situation but you were just out of practice. That and a lot of things change in the medical world in 9 years, I'm sure a refresher course and a better induction programme and you would have been as good as the day you left. If it's what you want to do, don't give up.
