Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well, it seem as though I'll be here a second night and when a nurse came in to give me meds I got a new one to handle acid. So, that must be part of my new regimen.
I'm feeling really lucky right now.
(BTW, JZ - I loved the Clydesdales - that was perfect.)

That is really inexcusable. She did the right thing, saw the doctor, had tests done. If he didn't see a problem he should have asked for another consult right away.
Do you and your family have confidence in your mother's current medical team?

Yay for hospital computing! I'm glad you are being well cared for, sumi.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Do you and your family have confidence in your mother's current medical team?
Yes. They kinda brought in every big gun, sometimes for free, when they realised what happened, as a sort of communal apology. It was remarkable to see the medical community rally around her. She can pretty much get anyone in Jamaica to see her, and we've discovered every oncologist and gastroenterologist on both sides of the family too, and they're on call as well. And psychiatrist, and acupuncturist, and nutritionist, and...and...and...
She's that sort of a woman.

The doctor came in - definitely spending the night.
He says that I have about 100 pockets in my colon. But there was one that looked different so he tried to make it bleed but couldn't - anyway, he clipped that one and we've just got to keep our fingers crosses that its the one that was the culprit.

Oh Steph, I totally understand the rage! Hoping that you found the calm and are currently kicking someone's ass over at the hospital. Much ~ma to you and your father.
And sumi, much ~ma to you as well. Second night at the hospital isn't fun. I am so so glad you went in to have things checked.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
sumi,
I don't quite understand the colon, but I'm nodding over here.
the hospital has wifi, so it can't be all bad.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Fingers crossed for you, sumi!
Um, holy crap. I am now doing extra work Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, then Monday and Tuesday. The new dates are for this movie - [link] (OMG, I might breathe the same air as Common!). Also, I just pulled up the calculator on my computer dashboard, and I have a widget that I'd totally forgotten about... it's been exactly nine months since I moved to New Orleans. Wow.
