Yesterday I failed an IV on a child. It was so absolutely discouraging for me.

Eh take it easy, fall down get back up again, and life goes on fren

Whenever I have to fast before an appointment my veins are impossible to get. Which is odd since they’re normally ridiculous.

At worst Ive been poked 8 times before they could catch a vein. They also have had to reschedule me a few times from my blood clotting up.

Everyone’s gonna go through a little rough patch of misses. And kids are tough! Don’t sweat it, happens to the best of us.

put your thumb beside the vein so it dont roll. and dont stick it completely threw it also.. that is what i found out..i was phlebotomized for six month with a nice little gal i call miss stickalot..she did get better..

What is it that you are doing?
