Fay, that's an excellent cut! (Also, you *do* look like me, or *I* look like you, and I hope that doesn't come across as egotistical on my part or vomit-inducing on your part.)

It seams that the triage nurse decided I was crazy or something and didn't let the doctor's in the back know that there was a patient in the waiting room having seizures.

Egad.

In her defense, we saw A LOT of crazy come through the ER in our six hours waiting. I don't know how they do it every day.

vw - I wish there were something we could do besides shake our fists impotently at the universe. Much calm and patience and wellness ~ma to you, all day long and in my sleep, too.

It seams that the triage nurse decided I was crazy or something and didn't let the doctor's in the back know that there was a patient in the waiting room having seizures. My friend Allison, who was with me, bless her heart, kept letting them know that I was getting worse, and they just didn't really care.

This is outrageous. I'm so sorry this happened to you on top of everything else. Have a peaceful day, resting at home.

Ok, thanks for the followup post about the other nurse. I'm sure people like her make up the majority of the healthcare profession. But the minority of asshats makes all of them look bad. I'm so glad you had the good experience last.

libkitty, thanks for the update and links to stories about the fire. What a disaster - it's wonderful that everyone lived through it. I hope the lady finds her kitty. Yeah, years of history burns up, an important community center gone along with irreplaceable artifacts, the one guy gets out without so much as a shirt, and I'm worried about a cat.

Fay, that haircut is worth whatever price you had to pay for it. I'm boggling even further that it was a repair job! You are just beautiful.

Brenda, giggling at the Sex Pistols - how old are they now? Monkeys! - how old am I?

Great picture, Daniel! That's a lotta snow.

Safe travels, Nora and Tom! Don't forget your camera!

Loving the spring memories.

ImememeN: It's my second day in a row of feeling right, the sun is shining, and I have a little time to cruise in b.org (until a user fire flames up). Life is pretty good right now.

will not fucking kill my husband.

took my fucking keys to work with him. only set. extra keys are $100.

he's on his way home now.

and it occurs to me. This is the 2nd time he's done this.

Can I wear my hospital pants to work? They're just SO comfy! Also, they say MGH on the ass, which just cracks me up.

Aimee, you can kill him. I give you permission.

Bad MM!! No biscuit!!

Interesting , vw. I believe you when you say your care is bad and I believe you when you say it is good. IOWords, I feel that if you complain - it isn't just whineing. Sadly, you know how the ER works. You know it will be a long time before you see anyone. So I trust you when you feel ignored. or dismissed. So that's why I want to thawp them. and I even know that last night could have been a bad night for the nurse that wasn't so good. I want to give the other nurse a hug and flowers. She saw you .

DH did that once. the good part, whenever I can't find my keys - he now looks throught his stuff quickly, without saying "but I don't have them"

Oh my little bug, I am so sorry.

I am back at work and am going to try and work a half day. Wish me luck!

Empress, don't kill MM, he's too cute to die bloody.
