What do you consider to be “gross”?

Okra. Okra is gross no matter how you cook it.

Seriously, there isn’t much that grosses me out. I’ve pretty much seen everything over the years. MVA’s, GSW to the face, stabbings. Been puked on too many times to count, had to deal with “finger painters”.. who are they? They’re the people who play in their shit, smearing it all over the place.

The one that that gives me the gags in regards to health care, and it’s not that it’s gross, is suctioning a patient. I can’t even deal with a tongue depressor without gagging, so just the action of suctioning a person gags me. The whole shoving the tube deep into someones mouth, and upper throat, or if they’re trached even, makes me gag.
