The hardest thing I've ever done

The maternity ward is a happiest and joyful department in a hospital.I really enjoy working at that ward until something happened. A lying-woman died during my worktime even though we've got serious CPR for rescuing her life but she still left us.I was too shock to think about anything during that CPR process.That was a terrible day for me.

A husband was asking for helping his wife who fell down in the bathroon when I just took over my duty for minutes.I have not seen the woman before that time.My coworker and I went to the bathroom to move her out to her bed.I checked her pulse,but no pulse;her pupil were dilated and her lip was turned into purple.I knew that we were losing her.We were panic,actually I had no idea what happened to her.I just knew her babyn died before gaving birth so she got an operation to take the baby out.On the other hand maternity doctores and nurses are not very good at CPR or first-aid rescue and we did not have enough first-aid medicine and instrument to do CPR.The only good thing is medical workers took over this difficult duty.After CPR we still couldn't save her life.The station was messy.I was tired,sad and disappointed.

Her husband was too shocked and sad to take this fact that he lost his baby and wife in 3 days.And nobody could explain what hppened to her even her Dr. and that medical workers.Everything was happened too fast.before She went to bathroom with her husband,she was weak but still could talk to her husband very clearly.Then the husband waited outside 5 minutes then opened the door to find her wife lying on the floor.After 3 days the husband sued us for his wife's death,everything became complicated.

One week later we got her blood serum analysis it contained pottasium hydroxide intoxication. That is very dangerous chemical it can kill you in few minutes if you take overdose and there is no way to cure . So we knew that was not our problem.This piece of news made me feel a little bit better.We still had to go to the court to prove the blood serum analysis and explain the process of that day.The judge decided we were not guilty.The husband was astonished about that result but could take it.Finally we heard that when she knew the baby was dead in her uterous,she could not believer the truth and she asked the God for saving her baby .And God said if you took out the baby by an operation the baby won't be dead.But after the operation the baby already died for a while, she was sad because she looked forward to this baby for many years and blamed herself very much. Before that operation she went back her hometown to get that chemical.She premeditatedn to kill herself in the hospital.

After that happening I had insomnia for several months.I colud not stop thinking about the whole thin,for example if I'd concerned about her sorrow and paid more attention on her and if I knew more about first-aid cure maybe she could be saved.My father told me that you should think about what you could be better for your nursing career not just blamed yourself and did nothing.This event let me know I mustn extend my knowledge of medical nursing and I should pay more attention on that kind situation.Then I became a ICU(Intensive care unit)nurse after one year.I still like my job.
