...while on placement in SA. i had some free time during the days because my patients were sleeping, or seeing someone else, or...not available...so heres some thoughts put together in the form of poetry.
yes. jan knowles does poetry.
Why oh why does it take so long?
Any other day
I probably wouldn't mind
The thing is,
I just want to get it over and done with
No more waiting.
Good stuff.
(written possibly in relation to treating the patient who swore at me a lot.)
People think physios only walk people
Help them back to health.
You see, there's more
So much more to
It that than. i find it hard.
Oh, to be in the NIAS*
(written after a tough day,i appear to have been thinking that a paramedic would be an easy job in comparison...)
*NIAS- Northern Ireland Ambulance Service
Burns, horrible things
Ugly, sometimes, if i'm honest.
Really hard to deal with-
Not just for the kid but for the parents and
Siblings. And the physio too.
(reflecting on time spent in the burns ward.)
Simple things. you think everyone would have them.
Hard ground,
Over stones, down mountains
Everybody needs shoes.
Simple.
(after seeing the amount of parents on the wards who don't have shoes, and after seeing girls in very inappropriate shoes walking down Table Mountain.)
