Yesterday was fairly quiet in the ER. I did, however, see my first baby in the red zone. I guess it stopped breathing, was taken to our ER, and then transferred to Children's. Unfortunately for the baby, it's a rough beginning to what may be a rough life. It was born 10 weeks early and was only 8 weeks old, so technically wasn't even full term yet. Both parents were heavy smokers I guess, and the mom was there and kept asking if she could leave so she could go for a smoke break, and then to go take a shower. Whenever I kept on peeking into the room, she was sitting across the room from the baby and talking/texting on the cell phone. Ahh yes. Some of society's finest. The nurses had fun with that one.
