OOO-- that was a good APril fool (doing what I do for a living, I believed you!)

My HIGH: birthday party for one of my former clients who will be one-year old tomorrow! He's up to 14 pounds and can sit up and is now off the ventilator for one hour/day!! (for those who are thinking that's an April Fools, sorry, it isn't... he started off ~700 grams and gave me more than one gray hair as I sweated blood and tears pulling him through those first 5 months before he went home from the NICU)

LOW: precepted a student NP today who was totally and absolutely clueless and unmotivated. I love working with students but it's hard when someone is unprepared for their clinical rotations and I would not trust to function independantly in a staff position, but I'm supposed to be training them to be in advanced practice??
