A Personal Account of Alzheimer’s. Donna Smith with a Look Back on 2011. Comedian Lynn Ruth Miller Unplugged and Out of Control. Hiatal Hernias.
Not a surprise that for the 4th year in a row the Gallup Honesty and Ethics Survey again ranked nursing as the most honest and ethical profession by a wide margin. Cheers to the nurses!
On the show this week…Casey reads from a blog post—a first hand account of what it is like to know you have Alzheimer’s written by 89 year old Barbara Taylor Vaughan, Putting A Face on Alzheimer’s. Barbara started a Facebook page to facilitate an open dialog about the disease.
AND…She has been hailed as the “Meryl Streep of nurse activism,” our great friend and D.C. correspondent Donna Smith adds color commentary and perspective to our 2011 year in review.
If there were a radio jail…we’d be in it after comedian Lynn Ruth Miller gets together with Casey and Dan! The bleep button only goes so far. Read more…

We Are Thankful for…and Coming Up on Nurse Talk Nov. 26-27, 2011
We are thankful for…the smell of rain in the desert. Vicks VapoRub. Waking up to find a snowy morning. Supportive shoes. Belly laughs. A trail to follow. Authenticity. Relationships that get better with time. Chocolate in any form! A starry, starry night. Crickets. Random kindness from a stranger. Love. Coffee. Movie trailers. The distant sound of a train passing by. Scrubs with a lot of pockets. Friends, listeners and sponsors who make this show happen.
All of us here at Nurse Talk wish you and your loved ones many reasons to be thankful this holiday season. Casey and Dan are off to grandmother’s house this week, so we are playing a Best of Nurse Talk to inspire and delight this weekend.
