		<description><![CDATA[From time to time in the ER, we have the unfortunate experience of seeing relationships so foul that they can only be called "creepy love" as a nurse so aptly put it one night. It is just the sheer volume of people that we interact with that necessitates, to some degree, that we see all sorts of oddities. To narrow it down to just a few is so hard that I decided this would only be one part in a mini-series. Prepare to be horrified.

Maybe there is some truth to Vampires after all?

I will quote a wonderful colleague of mine who once told me, "A doctor can be totally incompetent, but as long as patients like him, he will remain employed. But the moment he has sex with the wrong person or comes to work drunk or stoned, he'll be fired in a heart-beat." <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=erdrama.wordpress.com&amp;blog=7194914&amp;post=401&amp;subd=erdrama&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
