A Very Sincere Thank You

Nurses General Nursing

I wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. I was going in for what was suppose to be just an in & out procedure (tubal ligation). But I guess after I came out of surgery I was in so much pain my OBGYN decided to admit me. He only would prescribe me Ultracet or Tylenol 3. I knew that wouldn't be enough to cover the pain. The Demerol has been helping. My husband goes back to work Thursday night & my mom goes back to work Friday so I knew I needed something stronger.

Anyway, to the point. From the day surgery, OR & floor nurses they have all have been just wonderful. So I want to say thank you to all of you nurses because it is not easy being on the other side. It has definitely been the year of hospital stays. I had my son, then my gallbladder removed, my son was admitted, my tubal & my OBGYN told my husband that I have a fibroid that needs to be removed so that's another surgery.

Thank you again for everything all you nurses do. This is definitely giving me motivation to go back to school. Happy Nurse's Week!

So sorry you had to go through all that, hoping you are feeling better now. I have also had multiple surgeries and it is not fun to be on the other side. Hope after the fibroid surgery you are done!!

I'm still in a little pain from the tubal but thankfully it's not that much & the Ultracet can cover it. I hope I'm done after I get my appendix & fibroid removed but you never know!

I also would like to say thank you, from someone who was just on "the other

side" earlier this week. I had atypical chest pain and a panic attack, and was

admitted to my hospital. My nurses did a great job, and helped me once again

see things from that other perspective. Helps a person be a better nurse!!! :cat:

Feeling better now, hope you are as well OC!!!

It's getting there. I just wanted my OBGYN to keep me in the hospital so I could have the other surgery done & over with. Now I have to wait.

Thats so scary! I'm glad you're ok!!! It's always great to have caring nurses & opens your eyes when you're on the other side. I think it makes you a better nurse because you can sympathize more with your patients.

Yes, I am starting to be in less pain. Glad to hear you're doing well!

I hope you feel better soon!

You've had a rough few years recently. I hope the 2nd half of this year gets better. Take care friend.

Ack, I go on vacation for a week and you go and fall apart?! Not cool man!

Seriously though, big hugs and prayers to you. You've had a seriously rough year, but I have faith that things will only get better.

Kisses!

I'm sure it will. What other surgeries can I have?

Lolol! Well technically I went in for a routine outpatient surgery but because I'm me & can't handle pain, OBGYN admitted me. Lol!

I can't wait to get my next surgery over & done with. Then no more surgeries for a long time.

Thank you! *kisses*

Feel better soon!
