Have been woke up , Had to listen to Grant and Hyrum getting their diapers changed ,{ This is one of the rare three person rooms } then they emptied my night bag . I used to do this myself but they got on me for doing so , as they need to keep track of my daily out put . {why ? }
A very pregnant young lady stepped in with my morning coffee , It appears that I have become infamous on wanting coffee in the morning .
I told her that if I saw her doing any more heavy lifting I was going to shake my finger at her . She looks like she could give birth at any moment .
By listening and keeping quiet about what I overhear , I have learned another young lady that works here is pregnant with twins . A third lady just lost her husband , He succumbed to wounds received in Afghanistan . She evidently had the surgeon do something controversial ,,, She had his sperm harvested and herself impregnated .
I told you if you listen and keep quiet , you can hear some real "stuff" , It kind of boarders on day time soap Opera stuff .
That's three pregnant ladies that I know of so far ,
Hyrum is being discharged Monday . How ? I don't know ,,,, He wears a diaper 24/7 , can't change himself . Can't feed himself , Can't walk , Can't even wipe his own butt , But he does have insurance that will pay for a live in caregiver .
It is now 7😮8 am . I can hear the lead nurse outside my door setting up her work station . Kind of like a mechanic's rolling tool chest with a laptop on top with what drugs every one is supposed to get .
It seams she sets up here because , one it's near the end of the wing , second it's between 4 rooms that need or take the most med's giving her the shortest walk with the largest load on this wing .
This is the Everest wing ,,, The question is do they mean,,, "ever rest ", Or how far you have to climb to get out ?
They moved the physical therapy room to the other side of this whole place . Just getting there should count as a full workout !!! . You leave this wing , I'm the second to last room on the right . It's close to 100 yards to the nurse's station ,, you pass another wing that's on you're left , travel on straight past where the P.t used to be , about 100 yards . past administration another 100 yards . you get to a left turn and travel another 75 yards a right turn another 75 yards another nursing station with three wings ,,, left , right , and center . Go down the center wing to the door straight ahead in front of you ,,, Yes ,,,, another 100 yards . Go in the door ,,, ten yards ,,, turn right . and Wah laugh . there You be ... You are now surrounded by weight's ,,, padded tables ,,,, padded floor mats , More weights ,waiting to be lifted ,,,,, No manner of torture is left out . {give me 5 sets of 10 NOW}
Hay ,,, I got myself there ,,,, half a mile or so ,,,, in a wheelchair,,,, and I need some reserve strength to get back !!!! . Yesterday I did getting back into my wheelchair if I should fall out of it exercises' . My chair "bit" me . On my left arm ,,, just above the wrist ,,,, It drew blood . The damn thing bit me !!!!
They just severed breakfast . One very small scoop of egg's cooked with chopped ham .... THAT"S IT ,,,,, nothing else ! not even a garnish !!!
I asked where the rest of it was ?
I told to give it someone else as there must be some else that's starving .
Such is life in a nursing home
