Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 26/06/2026Don’t like things around my neck, but Naloxone is in my purse always 110
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 21/06/2026Got these great t shirts from #brat2381@bsky.social. Thanks Miss Aja! 010
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 06/06/2026Thinking of my dad today. In the days leading up to D-Day, he was a part of a unit building airfields across England. After D-Day, his unit built airfields across Europe. 010
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 08/05/2026Well, I was just thinking of getting my small ladder out to change lightbulbs. Maybe I should rethink? 110
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 12/03/2026Back in the late 1980’s I was at a cardiology seminar, I worked ICU at the time. I asked a physician presenter if women’s heart disease should be studied since progression and expression was different, he said no. I was hoping to not hear that nonsense again. 350
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 06/01/2026It is so sad. My mom was a RN from 1945 to 1998, saw the devastation of vaccine preventable diseases and got us vaccinated as soon as a new vaccine came out. This is devastating. 020
Reposted by MaryShematologist, MD @shematologist.medsky.social · 06/01/2026This is so important. I’ve taken care of children who didn’t die from their vaccine preventable illness but instead -lost limbs -developed kidney failure requiring dialysis -had strokes and permanent deficits Death isn’t the only bad outcome. And sometimes it may not be the worst one. 524284
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 27/12/2025Wow, throwing a ton of people into caring for elders that have no training, little supervision (I hear new rules are coming that eliminates the requirement for RNs in NH care) certainly won’t cause any bad outcomes (sarcasm). 110
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 06/12/2025Got one, I especially liked it since my dad spent 1943-1945 building airfields across the ETO 120
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 03/12/2025Thank you to your team of students who do such an amazing job! They are superstars! 020

Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 01/12/2025Just did my next #HCWvsHunger I donated locally, to our local food bank distributor. I logged it for #KidVengers. 110
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 29/11/2025#HCWvsHunger #mealioidosis Today’s donation is to mealioidosis since anti vax nonsense is again in the news. Fighting hunger and giving vaccines! 061
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 28/11/2025#HCWvsHunger #KCKidsHemeOnc Today’s donation was logged to KC Kids, since I live in KC. I have worked in health care over 50 years, and in many different areas, so I give to different groups. 1102
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 28/11/2025Logged my first donation for #KidVengers #HCWvsHunger Always glad to be a part of this! 130
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 26/11/2025One time my Dad had to tell my Mom and me to stop talking about nurse stuff. He had more than enough that day! 000
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 01/11/2025My first shingles shot was bad, but I did not have any bad symptoms with the second. 030
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 20/10/2025As someone who worked ICUs many years ago and saw many people die hard deaths, it is an important topic! 060
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 15/10/2025Took it 40+ years ago, so I can’t help, but you will do great! 000
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 10/09/2025You can also get at CVS. I am too old and don’t remember having measles. Got my 2nd dose at the same time as Covid update. 010
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 10/09/2025Updated vaccine are out and available, got mine this week at CVS. 000
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 08/09/2025Both were covered by Medicare and my co-insurance at CVS, had no problem. But on a good note, there was a line of folks getting vaccinations. Old, middle and school age! 120
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 08/09/2025Getting my Covid and MMR today in another state, will let you know 110
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 06/09/2025I’m guessing masters in nursing and a degree in chemistry also gives me a level of expertise better than his! 110
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 05/09/2025Certainly not now with health care in the state it is. Back then, stays were long and much less acuity, but I still remember the patients with stage 4 pressure ulcers, seeing death and lots of enemas 010
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 05/09/2025Started my first NA job at 15, but the hospital I worked at limited hours until out of high school (back in the Stone Age) But also would not recommend for that age. 110
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 10/08/2025Yep, I already bought some stuff for a relative that teaches kindergarten in a public school. 2302
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 23/07/2025Tylenol can have nasty effects if used incorrectly, there are no drugs that are 100% safe. 010
Mary @matrn.bsky.social · 21/07/2025Yep, the TB San in my home county was still being used in the 1960’s. 000
