My Mom is having a pacemaker put in this week. She has been on Coumadin because she has atrial fibrillation and TIAs so her doc had to take her off the Coumadin before the procedure. So I have to give her an injection twice a day for a blood thinner. I haven't been in nursing since '99. It sure was weird to give my mom a shot. First of all I wasn't even sure I could do it but it was like they say about riding a bike. Once you do it, you can't forget. But I'll be glad when I'm just a daughter again and not a nurse.
