Flat Bobby took a turn watching patient's heart rhythms (Some of the upper tracings in the individual sections look distorted because I had to hide the names). He turned the chair back over to Angela, and was relieved he wasn't on duty when one of the heart rates suddenly dropped into the 30's, then 20's; average heart rates are 60-80. As he watched over Angela's shoulder he saw the rhythm line change to a flat line. Then there were lots of people and noise as a "code blue" was called on the patient. He found out later they resuscitated the patient successfully!

esther17 demanded proof that her photo was on my desktop. Flat Bobby was glad to help. Well, he had no choice--I taped him to the monitor.

we found this amazing Indian rock when we broke ground for our new house in 1998, welcome to North Dakota Bobby, the best kept secret of the whole United States, I wish you could stay and watch our new babies foals being born, but that won't be until April and May, it's much too harsh a winter to foal outside here in the winter.
