I've never been one to ask for a normal gift under my LED christmas treeEvery year around Christmas time I start wishing for something special that no one else has. {Believe it or not|You may not think what I say is true}, I would always get my wish granted by Santa Clause, who ever since I've been a small child I've believed in.
For an instance, one year for Christmas I wished that Santa would make two men fall for me by the end of January. A goofy smile came over my face later that month, since I was thinking that yet again Santa had brought me exactly what I asked for. I thought I would try my luck again the next year, I again wished for something extraordinary, I wished with all my heart that I would meet the man of my dreams when I took my trip to Germany. And then three days before the next Christmas day, when I went to Germany on the train, I was sitting beside a man who I talked to for the entire ride. Six months later I married that man and he is now my Husband of many years. Now that is a great gift no one gets under their LED xmas tree.
This year, I am already through of wishing something for my self. I would like to wish something great for one of my patient who is suffering from diabetes. She is supposed to have her foot cut off that she is losing to the disease on the 1st of January, because it got infected . She is a Native American, and a mother of six girls; the eldest is only twelve and the youngest is two and a half. She lives alone since her mother died of a heart attack six months ago. I can’t imagine how life will be for her family, knowing that her income only comes from a simple family business of pottery and blown glass.
If I can decide what I really wanted this Christmas season, I would ask that I do a good job on the operating table, and let me give her the bet advice I can, and let her follow it. A less realistic wish is that people in powerful positions like government would care more about disadvantaged groups.
