I had to be admitted for an emergency procedure on past this Friday. Although, I was confused about how this hospital worked their ER protocol, (you get triaged, then blood work, then wait in results pending area in nice recliner) until someone comes and gets more of a history from you. From there is determined next step. I want to give a shout-out to nurse Rosie in the ER for her care and concern. A big thank to all those who helped me and calmed my fears in the Endo room. I was sedated and I i can't remember all your names but I remember Steve lol! Thank you to doctor who goes by Dr A for his attention and care he showed me. Thank you to the CNA Autumn and Ryan for the wonderful care and concern they showed me. Autumn can make the best chicken broth. Ryan, you were an angel to me while I was at my worst. Again, thank you to all of these Angels!
