Happy Saturday!!!

[S and S 12]

Well, I'm finally home from the hospital. The "supposed" 4-5 hour excursion in the hospital ended up being 10 hrs !

I went in at 8am. It took 3 hrs from the time I arrived to finally get something started in the drip . They had to do a "test drip" for 30 min to make sure I didn't have any reactions, then the real drip got started around noon. Noon is also the time they said that lunch would be coming and I had told them earlier that as long as it wasn't pork, I'd eat most anything. Well, after several calls to the nurse station, my lunch finally got delivered at 2:15 - What did they bring me??? a freaking pork chop!!!!! I finally got them to come back and by the time it was all said and done, the kitchen was closed and all they could put together for me was a turkey sandwich - fine. Except that when it came it was ice cold and literally a slab of cold turkey on 2 pieces of cold bread - plain, nothing else, that was it - oh, and a bag of chips!!! I was so hungry I ate it. Then right as my treatment is nearing it's finish, less that 2 hrs after I finally got lunch, they bring me dinner - #######?? I won't even go into that mishap.

I'm home now and I'm exhausted from all this....

And yes, they'll be getting a letter from me about the "service" I received in the hospital. Now I'm off to take some cough syrup and pass out soon I hope.

Happy freaking Caturday

I'm so sorry things went bad at the hospital for you. Glad you are home now. I know I hate going to the hospital, especially the ER.

There is a similar group called goodreads. com. That's where I am.

You know I went there but on the front page it had just about the same books in the Best Books Ever as in the Worst Books of All Time. I didn't go any further because I was like what the heck. Is it truly a good group with believable reviews?

Well both books that I got are HUGE. I started the one about the history of Arabs and suprisingly even though at first glance it looks intimidating just because of the sheer size, it's written pretty idiot proof for someone like myself.

Wow!!!! Note to self for Noura: bring a homemade lunch and dinner if you ever have to go through something like that again!!! I usually bring snacks with me for when I get MRI's or x-rays. I've never had a transfusion but just waiting for hours to be seen is sucky and then having to rely on what the hospital has in their snack machine sucks. Do you feel any different yet?

Hey girl, glad you are enjoying your time with your husband. Its great you could get the time off work too I hope you two stay very happy together and the adjustment is easy. I know you worked hard to make him comfortable.

Things are going fine with my husband. He finishes the class I put him in on Tuesday so after that he is going to apply at a hospital. Its only as a nurse's assistant but with the job market that is one of the easier jobs to get. There are always job openings for it and he can get benifits which we will need later when I leave my job.

Stay in touch, I look forward to hearing how things are going!
