Hospitals

Are no place for sick people. If you like gossip being near the nurse's station can be entertaining. If you seek silence, just skip the hospital and go directly to the cemetery. The "rest" recommended by doctors is not in a hospital. Drs. Stop in, once a day-touch your hand; "We are making progress. Tomorrow we should have more answers." Cannot sleep in a hospital, mostly the food is not so good, relaxing is not congruent with a hospital stay. Up and down the hall I hear the suffering moans and groans of those whose cross is greater than mine. Then a "code-blue" blasts over the speakers and I begin to pray. No, hospitals are no place to get better. I've been here 7 days, I am worse than when I came in. Then I think of Mommie-I took her in for two days of tests, 21 days later St.Mary and Murphy took her out. Gotta get out of this place.

Im sorry this is such a difficult time for you. Your cross is heavy now but let us help you carry it. Please try not too think like that, though its easier said than done...You will get out but there but it wont be st mary and murphy. It will be Murtaugh and Murphy who take you home still kicking and screaming. Keep your Chin up my friend!
