Re: ugggg'my stubborn husband

OK, so we give George a little reprieve BUT if it gets worse let him know who is running this show now!  LOL  Little secret? Teddy's first Whipple was aborted after 4 hours and it was a Friday. The Surgeon put him in ICU and said he did that as the better Nurses on the weekend were in ICU. I know! George just wnts to watch the Emmy's at home on Sunday!

Re: ugggg'my stubborn husband

Hi Lynn,

Sorry to hear about the pain that George is in right now. Have you got pain meds for him over the weekend? I know what you mean about stubborness as I have a mum that is equally as stubborn as George sounds! Also, I have a hole in my wall here that has developed over the years from me banging my head into it! Grrrr indeed to stubborness!!!

A good rant every now and again helps loads! So keep on ranting and make sure you get George seen on Monday!

Hugs,

Gavin

Re: ugggg'my stubborn husband

Hi Lynn,
As a patient, I can understand George's hesitation.  I've been in the hospital many weekends and it is scary when none of your docs are around.  I was sent to the ER at a different hospital on a Friday night.  The ER docs took a look at my records and got spooked so they transferred me to the Clinic.  The beginning of a very long weekend.
