From the Editor

Ever have "one of those days"?

Seems like I do more often than I should. In my editorial this issue I wrote about a recent challenging work shift where I Forgot to Ask for Help.... Learn with me how we can ask God to help us in our work. Discover other excellent content in this issue dealing with organ transplantation to improving faith community nursing practice. Don't miss Fit for Service: A Model of Self Care for Parish Nurses that really applies to all nurses.

Onward,  Kathy
