Status Updates From Cruise Ship SOS: The Life-S...

Have to pause this one for a little bit after chapter 11 gave me flashbacks of looking after an alcohol detox patient who died the same way as Matty. The description by Dr Ben was freakishly accurate and there are some patients I'll never forget.

Happy tears 😹 for both of them!

The one benefit to being old is that you no longer worry about what other people think. Nor do you worry about convention. That allows me to do what I think is right.

Well that lady was a first rate b*tch.. sad but not surprising I could see my sister-in-law doing this 😕.

Men who have lived through the darkest of nights do not give in when better days dawn. I’ve seen countless patients beat the odds when something really matters to them. A daughter’s wedding.A son’s graduation. A grandchild’s first day at school.Now, here, a mark of respect to fallen comrades. Medicine is full of extraordinary stories.This Mr Baxter has vowed to travel to Singapore.Our job is to help him do just that.

‘While Kiri deals with the sniffles I’d like to get back to business. We’re all getting some well-deserved time off in Sydney but for Ben’s benefit as a first timer I should point out that the workload when we leave port may get even harder.’ He turns to me. ‘Ben, how do you think our charming crew may behave when they are let loose on the streets of Sydney for an overnight visit?

😞😓 aaw Matty

Poor Jasmina :(

Husband neve checked on his wife after that either grrr 😠

It seems that way above us in one of the passenger restaurants a guest with a strawberry allergy has decided she likes the look of the strawberry gateau. I get the call two minutes after her head hits the carpet.
