Jan 2nd...ah yes lucky ole me and the joys of female indoor plumbing, not only have I been sliced open and have bruises and tubes sticking out of me but I get my period!! Not at all accommodating is the Nazi Nurse I had this day...I tell her what I need and she looks at me and says o well I don't think we have that but I will get you something..o gee lady thanks! ( she speaks in a thick Lithuanian accent and is not at all as sweet and nice as my other Nurses) She comes back with those things men just never want to hear about so I will keep it light, anyway my iron is low, my potassium is low and my magnesium is low..well Hello I wonder why!?! Now I am no Nurse or Doctor nor ever want to be but even I know what is going here. So later around 8pm she comes back to my room after all my visitors had left. Kellie, Joc, Julie, Tony, Wendy and Johnny which I would like to say thank you for coming and I am not responsible for anything I may have said or how I looked. Got Eyebrows that look like Snuffalupagus! So anyway Nazi nurse comes back with a drip juice bag and shoves another line in my arm to give me potassium chloride, this people was like battery acid being dripped into me! I cried like a little girl, big baby doll tears and all begging her to take it out that I could not handle anymore. She said NO, you need this and walked out of my room. All I know is a fired off semi plea for help to Denise via Itouch and with in minutes she was back taking it out and giving me a powder mix to drink. I never saw her again after that, her bedside manner was horrible and she had no sense of humor, I hope she and I never meet again in a desolate hospital hallway cause she will be eating a bed pan.
This was the only and one incident that was horrible at my stay at Lahey. The days I was there it was mostly filled with alot of pain meds and laughter. I gave my Dad the "bullshit button" for Christmas which he brought with him to the hospital, it is like the Easy Button just says a few Bullshit quibs, but it was a hit and us Charbonneau's became the favorite's of the Nurses. I also feel that I must advise to never watch T.V. there since it is $12.75 a day and ya I still can't get past that, but they give you 2 free channels one being PBS, ya ummm drugs and the Electric Company do not mix I was over stimulated like a lunatic toddler and having some amazing techna color dreams.
