i need some therapy

i always see our pet therapy dogs walk around our hospital eversince i started working there. but since i work with the newborns, our department is the only floor they can't come...kaya i never had the chance to pet them!!!

(he's not a horse...he's a dog!! "barkley" a great dane dog)


but today is a different story....when i saw them walking down the hallway...i took initiative to stop by and play with them!!! they are such trained dogs, very calm and they are used to being touched!!! kung ganito lang lahat ng dogs..!!!they don't bark, lick, and mostly they don't bite!!! buti nalang my phone is in my pocket, kaya nakasingit ng ilang pictures with them!!!

(he's even heavier than me..he weighs 145 pounds!!!)

("keisha" our little black poodle dog)

studies have shown that pet therapy program in a hospital helps patient recover faster!!! Well for a nurse like me, it lessens my stress of the day, even though i just spent few minutes with them!!

they not only do therapy for the patients, they do it for the employees as well!!

so what do you mean by that?


i was browsing in the message board of n@w and read this one post regarding one line from desperate housewife that was aired last sunday.


just to be curious i clicked on the link and read and watched the video clip of the so called "controvercial line"


unfortunately, they somewhat insulted medical professionals that graduated from the Philippines. coming from the medical field, this really hit me hard!! I know i graduated nursing school here in the US, but let me tell you filipino workers, not only doctors and nurses, but all, in the hospital here in the US are known to be the best workers noh!!! We are the ones that do the the best bedside care to our patients.


ewan ko, but i am really irritated about that insulting line!!! not just we graduated from another country, does not mean we are less of a professional!!


watch it and let me know what you can say about it!!

Trip to Jerusalem

My in-laws just got back from their trip in Israel. Sayang hindi kami nakasama, wala pa kasi kaming vacation hours from work eh!!! Siguro next time, Eric and I surely want to visit the birth place of Jesus Christ. Sabi nga nila, ang sarap daw ng feeling to know that so many years ago Jesus was there and is stepping on the same land as what your stepping at right now...

hopefully soon..makapunta din kami doon!!!

but ofcourse they never come home from a trip without pasalubongs and here it is:



while we were with my in-laws...mom and i decided to have a mother daughter bonding...so what else to do....SHOPPING!!

we left our husbands at home and we went to the nearest mall from their house. I ended up buying 2 sweaters, 1 turtle-neck shirt, 1 while polo shirt, and flat black shoes!!! then mom got 1 sweater and white polo shirt. oh diba...shopping to the max talaga kami!!!

when we got home daddy and eric both said "delicado talaga magsama itong dalawa..mauubos pera natin!!"

hehehe...as you can see i am one of the lucky ones to have such a loving relationship with my in-laws....they are actually my second parents...kasi pag-pinakikila nila ako..youngest daughter daw nila ako!!! no choice as of now I am the only daughter they have..puro kasi boys sila eric eh!!!

gotta go.....still suffering form my viral colds and cough..but it's getting better!!
