Black Day at the VA

Today was a very sad day at the VA. Marilyn, one of our inpatient technicians, passed away today. While preparing for a retirement party for another technician, she collapsed in our inpatient pharmacy. The fire department on station was called and they transported her to the ER. I was told they worked on her for 20 minutes before pronouncing her. When I got the pharmacy, our director was returning from the ER with her badge and personal effects. It was quite an emotional time.
