There is nothing better than showing up to work extra and finding a brown sugar boba from Yi Fang waiting for you.
Yi Fang— home of the best boba
Among the other fantastic treats I received: a homemade pumpkin chocolate chip muffin and pizza from one of our patients who just left the hospital after his heart transplant.
After being off for 5 days, however, I was pretty terrified that I would find a hospital overrun with covid and bursting at the seams with patients. And we do have a pretty full house… but amazingly, our covid numbers haven’t skyrocketed. House-wide we have only 29 total, 6 of whom are “cured,” and 2 are waiting for results. There are NO cases in the ICU currently.
This is definitely better than I had hoped for and expected, given the terrible news I’ve been hearing lately. Perhaps the hard work of London Breed, mayor of San Francisco, and Gavin Newsom, governor of California, is paying off in reducing covid infections and hospitalizations!
Also, one last thing to be so happy about this extra shift.
Bring on 2021!
