Patient Urgency

8/28/2015

How do you wait when something needs to be done or had right now?

It would seem counterintuitive and counterproductive to be patient while there's urgency doesn't' it? But think of the staff in an Emergency Department of a hospital dealing with a trauma patient---if they jumped in without first fully assessing the patient they could miss vital information that make the difference of life or death.  They need to take time to assess the different body systems (ie/ the respiratory and circulatory systems) to get a 360 picture of the person they're helping. I'm reminded of learning in nursing school that if someone has been impaled DO NOT remove the object as it could lead to more bleeding and they could die.

Seems counterintuitive doesn't it?

How does this apply to other situations? There are times change can't make an immediate 360. Just like large cargo ships that can't change direction on a dime there are situations in the world where there is urgency to correct the direction things are going in such as water scarcity, pollution, and peace in the world. As much as we want and know change is needed it can't turn faster than a cargo ship. 

But here's where I see patient urgency entering the picture---staying fully committed to the change, working persistently and fearlessly on it while enrolling others to be a part of it builds critical mass helping to tip the scales.  You might risk what others think of you for being "unreasonable" but how much does that really matter in the scheme of things?

Yet how many times do you get stopped in your tracks thinking it's too big or impossible to accomplish? Or perhaps you're in the minority and worry what others will think of you?  When you do this your thinking has restricted all possibility.  It requires living, thinking, and being larger than who you think you are.

Possibility can only exist when it isn't limited.  Exploring what is possible thrives on being willing to be unreasonable (not having reasons why it won't work) and making requests of others to also be unreasonable along with you.

Read the last paragraph again.  Does it excite and inspire you?  That's my intention.  Excitement and inspiration are the precursors to motivation!   

So where in your life can you begin to be "unreasonable"?

Here's to creating possibility!

Is it the right thing to do?

This past Saturday I learned how to skip stones. I tried on my own over the years, but didn't know you needed a particular shaped stone, released in a certain way for it to work. My first challenge however, was which hand to throw it with. That might seem simple for most people, but not for me. Many of the things I do (including writing) I do with my left-hand but I'm right-handed when I knit, use a computer mouse, and now it turns out skipping stones. Not knowing which hand to use allowed me to experiment and play with the outcome.

It can be a real blessing when you don't know how to do something right? Or is that left?

Here's to skipping stones!

Do you celebrate anniversaries?

Anniversaries----some are joyous and celebratory while others are sad and remind us of what we've lost. We can't have one without the other, without sadness and loss then joy isn't so sweet is it?

I am celebrating having a wonderful drive to my convention in Marlborough, MA. I had plenty of gas and I didn't get lost. I even enjoyed the drive. Imagine that! It was so different from last year and the difference is why I enjoyed it so much more. Next year I might stay longer and go to Cape Cod.

We will be celebrating my son and daughter-in-love's first wedding anniversary in a few weeks. I had a really fun time at the wedding and reception. The morning hikes I took alone were grounding, rejuvenating, and beautiful! 

The wedding was the first family event since Jim and I had separated and at that time no one else knew. I recall the sadness at the time that our life together had changed so much. Jim and I told our sons and daughter-in-love about the separation after Labor Day, and it was a hard conversation to have. It was going to change their lives permanently, too. A year later there's a normalcy around it. Fears I had early on have lessened or have gone. I am aware of how I've blossomed this year. I even had people at the convention remark on how wonderful I looked and wondered what had happened. 

Acknowledge your own anniversaries. You can use anniversaries to heal and honor and/or rekindle joy and gratitude. And do remember to draw in those supportive people in your life when you need them. 

Here's to another year!

Stop it!

I spent this past weekend in the hospital with my mom. She called me Saturday morning saying she had a sudden onset of a right sided headache, blurred wavy vision, nausea, and numbness along her right cheek. I knew her calling me meant she was scared. When I told Jim about her symptoms, he said she needed to be checked in the ER and a CAT scan done. It seems she had a TIA (Transient-Ischemic-Attack) what is also called a mini stroke. She was observed overnight in the hospital and had an MRI in the morning, along with other testing. Her MRI was clear (no damage to the brain occurred) and she was discharged. I'm sure you can imagine the sigh of relief we shared. 

Life can change suddenly, on a dime.

During this experience I was humbled, scared, and was my mom's advocate. There was laughter, too. I sent the word out to my tribes, as I knew I needed their support. I believe in the power of prayer and am so grateful for all the prayers and thoughts from friends and family. I am grateful for the way one friend cheered me up Sunday morning, giving me a reprieve from all the uncertainty; it's good to have people who think outside the box! I'm grateful for people I know who can be part of my mother's wellness team, if she's interested in pursuing what they have to offer her. 

I'm also so very grateful for all the love coming my way.

Do you reach out to others when you're in need or do you only work on the giving side? If you do more of the latter, STOP IT. If you don't allow yourself to receive you really aren't giving to others. If you don't feel worthy of receiving or think you should be stronger and, therefore, need to go it alone, STOP IT. In order to give, you must receive as you need to experience the circle give and take really is----as important as it is to be a contribution, it is equally important to let others be a contribution too.  

I'd like to be a contribution to you so I hope you'll take a few minutes and read about stroke prevention. If you're looking at improving the way you eat or your physical activity, let me recommend Jessica Lewis to you. Do you need to do something about your stress levels, get help in quitting smoking or lose weight, then consider a complimentary consultation with me. 

Here's to your health!
