Respiratory Therapy
Of all the days to wear your new, comfortable, slip-on, fabric shoes to work, the day that an alcoholic presents with ruptured varices is not the best day. Seriously. There was 1/2 inch of blood on the floor in the resus room; you could almost wade through it. We had two rapid-infusers pumping blood into him, and just as fast it would come burbling ...
