The first 4 years were very difficult for me to let go of the traumas and energy of all these different families. It is more comfortable for me now. So much that I am curious about getting into mortuary science and pathology.

I relate 100% to what you are sharing. I could not talk to others either because most people are put off by the topic of death. Lots of people want to talk about the afterlife but most find the actual topic of death disturbing. I can appreciate the work which you do in ICU, that type of work is confronting and does help us grow.
