For all the times I've wished I wasn't a doctor and a nurse and was doing something either in agriculture or the financial sector instead, here's a time when I was glad I'm both a doctor and a nurse.

My wife got sick with some sort of viral stomach infection yesterday. I got out the IV fluids, started an IV, gave 2 liters of fluid, and saw her getting better. Still not drinking well this morning. Connected the IV again and gave another liter.

The ability to do something that helps a loved one feel better immediately is tremendous.
