You're a true professional, Dee, in every sense of the word. This poem shows that. But you are also a caring human being. Without that quality you might as well give up your job. The two go together, strangely as it may sound, but you know what I mean. Thank you for being you, and don't ever change. Love, Fran xxx

Dee, I try, but as you say you cannot always be successful no matter how hard you try. It is keeping that emotional distance if you can while you still being involved. That is the hard bit. Wonderfully crafted poem and I commend you for all that you do do. Top marks and thanks for sharing it my friend. David

I'm not much of an altruist but I know what you mean...I wear my enemies as my red badge of courage.
