My job requires commitment and compassion. It demands authenticity of the heart. I am glad my spiritual growth is being nurtured too. I included Bible reading as part of our every day routine.

I am working at Medical City, gustuhin ko man kunin ang regular basis pero I can't because of my prior commitment. I can't give up my voluntary work at the shelter and some of my engagement in certain groups that tackles the plight of an OFW.
I am so blessed, I am very fortunate to have all the good stuff knocking in my door. My patient is Male/65 yrs old, CVA and half paralyzed. It is a challenged working at night shift but I am loving it. I am more inspired and more dedicated to make myself a better person. I did said it before that I am happy but now I can definitely say, I am the happiest woman in the whole world. Why? Because I am doing the right thing, my time is being spend with a purpose.

I promised to have a day in a week for my voluntary work at Philippine Animal Welfare Society (PAWS). I am loving it there and being comfy doing a voluntary job at the shelter. One way of releasing my boredom is by playing with the cats.
Last Friday I haven't got a chance in walking the dogs because of heavy rain. I did washed the dirty towels that has been used in the clinic. It was really an experienced because at home I don't do it. I got to talked and mingled with other volunteers too from different school and groups.
My time spent in PAWS always special. It brings joy to me and becomes my outlet after my busy schedule at the Hospital.

Matagal ko nang gusto maging volunteer sa PAWS pero dahil sa busy scheduled ko sa school and OJT hindi ko nagagawa. I am a certified cat lover. May kakaibang charisma sa akin ang mga pusa kahit anu pa ang hitsura nila o kung pusang kalye man sila wala akong hesitation sa kanila.
Nag-umpisa ang pagiging mahilig ko sa pusa sa murang edad ko pa lamang. As early as 6 yrs old (as far as I remember) may pusa na akong inaalagaan. Sa umpisa ayaw ni Mama dahil hikain ako, bawal sa akin makalanghap ng balahibo nila pero pinagbigyan pa rin nila ako dahil talagang nakikita nila how I adored kittens.
Madami na akong napuntahan at nasamahan para maging volunteer pero ang karanasan ko sa PAWS ay isa sa hindi ko makakalimutan. Siguro dahil hilig ko talaga ito o sadyang nangingibabaw sa akin ang pagiging pet lover. Samut-sari din ang kwento sa loob ng kanilang kulungan. Ang iba ay rescued pets, at ang iba ay totally abandoned. As of June 10,2013 256 cats and 67 dogs are looking for a homes. I have plans to adopt the kitten I saw in Quarantine Area. I even named her Gumamela. Sana makuha ko siya bago matapos ang buwan.

I am loving my chosen craft. This job is self fulfilling and very rewarding in a sense that I am privileged enough and has a peculiar effect not only for others but for my whole being. It created a huge impact in my life. Tending to the needs of the patient always bring joy and happiness to me.
My experienced at Jose Reyes Memorial Medical Center is life-changing because every I've learned the value of friendship and love. I got the chanced in saving my patient's life by donating my own blood. Walang katumbas na saya ang naramdaman ko sa mga oras na iyon. It feels like iyong buhay ko ay may direction at purpose. Naramdaman ko din ang pagkakaiba ng pribado at pampublikong hospital. It's depressing but as a nurse I have to composed myself and act on professional manner. Emotions were mixed especially that JRRMMC is a public institution. I was used to private scenario in JRRMMC, it was different.
My patient case is Nasoethmoidal Meningocele and Club Foot. He is 17 yrs old from Zambales. It is an inborn abnormalities. According to Mayo Clinic site Clubfoot describes a range of foot abnormalities usually present at birth (congenital) in which your baby's foot is twisted out of shape or position. In clubfoot, the tissues connecting the muscles to the bone (tendons) are shorter than usual. The term "clubfoot" refers to the way the foot is positioned at a sharp angle to the ankle, like the head of a golf club. Clubfoot is a fairly common birth defect and is usually an isolated problem for an otherwise healthy newborn. Nasoethmoidal Meningocele is a mass in the base of the nose which exist between nasal bone and nasal cartilages.
Before the operation he was advised for NPO (nothing by mouth). June 17, 2013 @ 7am the patient was brought to the OR, lasted for 3 hours and 5 hours at the recovery room. He was transferred in his ward at 3pm. The patient was conscious and very aware. The first thing he asked was to have water but he wasn't allowed yet. First night after the operation he was asleep most of the time and for the 2nd day he talked about his experienced in the OR (how does it feel to be there, what was his fear before the operation, complains a lot about the catherization, how his body became numb when the anesthesia was inserted and etc.)
This job offered me a good salary, since his mother is my friend and Taiwan I've decided not to get a penny. I want it to be a voluntary work since I had an allowance and a dorm to lived, it was an easy job for me. His mother showered me with gifts, perfume, make up kit, 3 sets of scrub suit more than enough in the salary I've supposed to get.
Yesterday was my last duty, because I had a prior commitment that can't be put on hold. It was my job interview and qualifying exam (lucky me, I've passed. Mag-aantay na lang ako ng tawag para magsimula) Pagdating ko sa bahay from work, binuksan ko ang aking bag to my surprised Vicky did still gave me a salary. It was more than I could imagined. God really is great. HE works in unexpected way.
" The importance of things can be measured by how much time are are willing to invest in them. The more time you give to something, the more you reveal its importance and value to you. If you want to know a peron's priorities, just look at how they use their time. Time is you most precious gift because you only have a set amount of it. You can make more money, but you can't make more time. When you give someone your time, you are giving them portion of your life that you'll never get back. Your time is your life. That is why the greatest gift you can give someone is your time. Whenever you give your time, you are making a sacrifice and sacrifice is the essence of love" (The Purpose Driven Life)
