Follow it backward past the scrubs, past the ward, past mercy:
it was warmth beading from skin hidden deep in the burrow.
It meant only this: keep the small mouth fastened to the world.
Much later, we gave the word a uniform.
And somewhere behind a utility door,
nurture learned its own hunger.

THE UPSIDE-DOWN WATCH 💎

When I was a small boy, about five, I was sent away with tuberculosis to a children’s sanatorium in Wanganui, New Zealand. That was another time and another whole world away; I was there for roughly two years.

This morning, for no particular reason, I found myself remembering one particular nurse.

I DON’T REMEMBER HER FACE, THOUGH.

Not at all.

What I remember is her starched white uniform. Her nurse’s cap. And a little watch clipped to her uniform, upside down, so she could look down and read the time. I can see that watch now.

Sixty-five years later.

I mostly remember her from my bedtime. She put me to bed. Fussed over me and looked after me as though she was my mum. She did all those ordinary intimate little things that a small child needs an adult to do for him.

And somehow, in my memory, she simply accepted the whole role. I don’t remember conversations. I don’t remember her name. I can’t summon her face. But I remember what it felt like to be cared for by her.

THAT SURVIVED.

It makes me wonder about memory. Perhaps we don’t always remember the people who loved us or cared for us as clearly as photographs. Sometimes the faces disappear. The names disappear. Almost everything disappears.

And sixty-five years later, there is a small boy lying in a hospital bed, a woman in a starched white uniform, and an upside-down watch.

And somehow, the kindness is still alive.

In 2022 NHS trusts raised #Ukrainian flags & shipped ventilators to Kyiv. Nobody got suspended

Then came #Gaza

- #Nurse #threatened with disciplinary action for #watermelon on a Teams background
- #Doctor with #NHS 15 years suspended mid-shift, escorted from building for social media posts on own time on private account

Thousands of NHS workers are saying: apply the rules consistently, or don’t apply them at all. Do you agree?

1) "Big Beautiful B|ll" tries to screw "woke" degrees [3 yrs fail & Uni has to cancel that #degree path]
"MA in Social Justice & #HumanRights" "BA in Women's & #Gender Studies" "PhD in #African American Studies" were their targets
2) Religious #schools figure out their degrees will lose funding too
3) Chr|stian #Colleges cry foul, beg for rule to be removed

Class, welcome to Fascism 101. (A) Appoint people meant to dismantle government. (B) When the planned chaos comes, demand more power to "fix" what you've created. (C) Repeat.

It's not at all a modern hospital, but the nursing staff is VERY well dressed:
