Hospital musings ....

Hi, still here :-)

My Dr is back from holiday tomorrow, and I will see him here to find out what the go is - so nothing to report yet, OK?

Moving onto musings :

Musing 1 : Is it permissble to punch a Midwife in the head when she wakes you up at 5:45am to take your blood pressure?
Musing 2 : WTF - isn't a hospital supposed to be QUIET?
Musing 3 : Shift change at 9:30pm handover, and the NEW shift comes into the room to see you at 11pm???
Musing 4 : The steriod injections I am on prevent you sleeping - errrrr, thanks, I ALREADY have that problem, didn't need it to be HARDER!
Musing 5 : In HUGE letters on the board 'REST" - can I point you back to Musing 2 & 3?

Anywho, here I am. Reading my book, strolling around - because I mean seriously, who of you is expecting me to sit still? I already have a notation in my chart "not in room" when they came in for something.

Babies are fine and moving about, they like to play up when the monitoring machine is on - you know, moving AWAY from the listening pad so you can't hear anything, and then the machine gets left on LONGER.
I have already told them when they get out, they will be beaten - I don't care WHOSE fault it was :-)

Oh Oh

Musing 6 : What is the nurses obsession with "what names have you picked out". I almost said Bismarck and Guthro - just to see (all my South African friends are rolling around on the floor now) :-)

OK, might be more later, but for now, that's all.

Cheers
Me
