Day 9 Peek a Boo Baby

A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. 

I am clearly not an OB nurse, so when a volunteer was needed to help deliver a baby in simulation lab, I opted out. I took pictures and videos instead.

28 paramedics and nurses stood in a small room all amazed at this state-of-the-art simulation manikin that gives a close to life encounter of a birthing mother. What amazed us most, however, was the "bleeding" added to the whole experience.

Am I glad to have seen that? Sure. I can only cross my fingers, however, and hope that I don't ever do that in real life (as in me as a nurse, not the mother; though, that, too, was scary to witness).
