Speak Of The Devil

No sooner did I finish my Happy Birthday post than I get the call. A patient in a nearby hospital passed and we went to pick her up. They sent another guy with me, and he watched as I went through the process, told me where to park, where to go to get the paperwork, etc. We got her loaded up and drove her directly to the crematory. I guess there will not be a funeral; maybe a memorial service later.

I don't think I could have done all of this solo; not yet, anyway. In time, I will learn the ins and outs of making removals, be they from hospitals, homes, or hospice. I would like to do a few more team removals before I'm left on my own. I'm not sure when that will be; a couple of weeks from now or my very next call...who knows?
