Misadventurous Melissa

Everyday is an adventure, or misadventure as the case may be. It is the latter that makes for the best stories, inspiring the name of my blog. I'm a nurse and an attorney (and way too silly sometimes). I am retired now. WELCOME to my blog! This is a work of fiction inspired by true events. The patients I refer to are a patchwork quilt of various patient's problems mixed together. If you think you recognize someone, you are wrong. These people do not really exist.

A Five Advil Night

For the ENTIRE shift, a wooOOOoooing sound like the wind howling through an abandoned building came from a patient's room. It was a patient. There was nothing that we could do to make her stop it, short of killing her, which management frowns upon. It was a five Advil in one swallow night. Tomorrow has to be better. It couldn't be any worse, unless that patient is still there tomorrow.
