Thank you. Because I travel a lot, my directive might not be current right away. One time I had serious bleeding after a hysterectomy. Instead of sending the doctor on call, my doctor left the restaurant and showed up with his wife, stopped the bleeding and stayed at the hospital until he was sure I was stable. I say this because I realized that the majority of health care professionals really care and to be put in a position as those described in these post is not only professionally stressful, but also personal stress the job doesn't necessarily stop with the time clock. I can only imagine what goes on in your head when you have to deal with these situations. I promise , that if I have to have a directive for every state that I go to, I wil and it will be up to date and completed correctly!!

Once again: THANKS FOR THE LESSON!!
