I breath through my mouth and get it done. I have sucessfully nurses tramps, vagrants covered in yellow diahrea, peolpe with body lice, socks so dirty that they have to be peeled of with some skin. I work in mental health now and peolpe who are ill sometimes come in painted green covered in faeces and eating them etc. It doesnt bother me anymore… only thing that bothers me is head injuries, they make me feel nauseaus
