Old Friends

Several of us that worked together in the dialysis unit at Allentown Hospital/Lehigh Valley Hospital got together tonite for dinner at Paolo's in Northampton. We sat there for three hours just catching up, laughing, reminiscing, enjoying good food and friendship. For those of you who have never been to Paolo's, I highly recommend it! Their food is tremendous...and you never leave without a goodie bag with leftovers for lunch the next day!!

From left to right: Me, Maribeth, Tina & Kathy

Three of us are still in the field of nephrology. Maribeth oriented me when I joined the dialysis staff in 1987. She had a toddler then, who is now 24 and has a son of her own (which makes MB a grandma...LOL)! Maribeth is now an area administrator of five of the local dialysis outpatient clinics. Kathy is a charge nurse at one of the outpatient dialysis clinics in the area. Tina is the only one still employed in the hospital system and is one of the people who answers the hospital's customer service line.

We had a great time and have decided we need to do this more often....at least on a quarterly basis!

My mother goes to St. Lukes hospital dialysis center (the building next to St. Lukes in Bethlehem). Just curious if MB oversees that one.

Nope neither of them are associated with St.Luke's....
