A Professional Nurse Comes to the Conclusion to Start Exercising, Stop Smoking, Go on a Diet, and Quit Drinking
By Robert | October 18, 2009
For the past nine years Natalie has been a licensed practical nurse at a large city hospital. As a nurse practitioner, she unmistakably knew what to tell her patients regarding their health problems but in her private life, nonetheless, she clearly didn’t practice what she preached. As an example, she frequently drank in an excessive and abusive manner, she frowned upon doing any physical exercise, she smoked almost two packs of cigarettes per day, and she was approximately forty-eight pounds overweight.
Natalie Gets Into A Vehicle Accident, Fails A Breathalyzer Test, and Goes to The Municipal Jail
One evening on her way to work, Natalie got into a vehicle accident. Because the accident was her fault and since her speech was garbled when she talked, the arresting policeman gave her a breathalyzer test. In accordance with standard police operating procedures, when a person gets involved in a vehicle accident and fails to pass a breath alcohol test, the individual has to spend at least three hours in jail.
As a matter of fact, Natalie should have known better than to drive after she was drinking because she recently went to an “alcohol abuse awareness” class at the hospital that focused on statistics, issues, and information about alcohol facts such as the following: alcohol poisoning, DUIs, binge drinking, and the key differences between alcohol abuse and alcoholism.
Natalie is Feeling a Lot of Shame About Her Automobile Accident
It almost goes without saying that Natalie was feeling a lot of shame about her automobile accident. Not only this but she was quite embarrassed about the fact that the accident was her fault. And perhaps worst of all, she experienced quite a bit of shame about the fact that she was driving after she consumed a few drinks. As Natalie contemplated this event, nonetheless, she realized that it could have been a lot worse because at her place of employment, when a alcohol blood test is administered and failed, the person has to go to mandatory alcohol therapy and is placed on non-pay status. This was actually one of the alcohol facts that was a reality at her place of employment and not much could change this fact.
Natalie’s Embarrassment About Her Vehicle Accident Encourages Her To Review Her Life and Make Some Noteworthy and Healthy Changes
At any rate, Natalie’s embarrassment about her car accident forced her to reevaluate her life and make some substantial and healthy modifications. First, she was going to quit drinking in a hazardous manner. Second, she was going to quit smoking. Third, she was going to go on a strict diet. And fourth, she was going to start exercising.
As troubled as Natalie was about the entire vehicle accident situation, she used this awful experience as a trigger for healthy change. In addition, she used her embarrassing experience as a real eye opener that she had been failing to address her own health while she openly told her patients how to live in a more healthy manner. At last, she finally saw the hypocrisy in her behavior and decided that she would live her life as a positive source of motivation for the individuals she treated at the hospital.
