at the end of a long day at work, i stammer and stutter and every patient becomes 'thingy with the leg' or 'missie needs her whatever'. My colleagues just find it funny and i laugh it off as dementia. Being careful to turn my head away when i laugh in case they see my wonky smile and thing i've had a stroke.
there's one nurse i bump into some days and i know that she knows there's something up. i'm Darth Vadar when it comes to deflecting questions now...
