I have been working for Gila River Health Care in the Podiatry Department since July 20th, and have been enjoying it very much. The staff and I get along well, and I really like the patients there. There have been some NASTY things I've seen, but all in all I've been able to stomach it, I guess that doesn't sat much though cuz I can handle more than most of you... One thing I want to share that I think will be ok for all readers without giving warning is, the other day a lady came in with a slashed Achilles heel. It had to be stapled closed (which was done by someone outside our office) , and we had to take them out, I wish I could have, but the doc did it. Her foot was just hanging there, it was sooo crazy, craziest thing I've seen!! The lady was being reckless and stupid on a motorcycle, IDK how it happened. I'm sure she lied anyway.
I have learned soo much about the history and culture of these people, and it is so amazing, and sad. I wish they (the majority of the population) cared more about the reservations upkeep and apparel. It is a work in progress though, which I was glad to hear.
I love that I am looked at as a member of the community (to an extent) because I work there, it makes it easier to take care of the patients since they're so close knit with their families.
Well other than that, no much has changed. I am thinking about moving out in a month or so, when I've saved enough money to get my own place, which will most likely be close to Jade and Joey.. I will keep you updated..
I love you all and hope all is well, your all in my prayers..
Love,
Amber
