I work as a RN first assistant in Surgery and in that job I
have seen the importance of a bright light in caring for Patients while
performing surgery. This brings me to my
latest free item. When the surgery
center where I work upgraded their fiber optic headlights I asked if I could
have one of the old ones. When I was
looking for someone to sell my new treasure to, I offered it to several of my
Surgeon friends for use in their offices.
For sale one fiber
optic surgical head light $200.
This world can be a very dark place at times. When things get their darkest, we need a
light to help us see our way and make things a little less scary. This is a story of one of the brightest
lights I have ever seen in surgery. I am
not speaking of the fiber optic variety but rather the doctor that bought my item. Dr. Kristina O’Shaughnessy is that
light. She is a very talented young
plastic surgeon who uses her skills and training to make women’s bodies whole following
mastectomies. There are a lot of skilled
surgeons that do great work but what makes Dr. O’Shaughnessy stand out is her
light. It shines from somewhere deep inside and lights the way for her patients
that are lost in the dark world of Cancer.
She is extremely compassionate, empathetic, sensitive and always bending
over backwards to help her patients. She
is always very encouraging, polite and attentive to the needs of her patients
and appreciative of those that work with and for her. I have almost never seen her without a smile
on her face and a kind word on her lips.
I am so happy that I was able to add a small amount of light to the life
of one who has added so much light to so many other lives.
