celebrity deliveries

[mugwump]

alright now I really don'[t want to get anybody in trouble with hippa but I'm just curious. As to so many people on allnurses has one of us been in a celebrity delivery? Do the big stars really expect more than the normal way of delivery. Just curious. Maybe i can rephrase this, what was the stranges thing expected of you, the nurse, during a delivery.

Girlfriend of a highly ranked MBA player, not the same story. She and her family kept dropping his name and I finally had to ask if that was a name I was supposed to recognize (I asked other staff, not the family). They certainaly expected special treatment because of him. Once he got there, he was a little less impressed with himself than they were. I had to push him a little to get involved, but no more than many other fathers. The only thing that bothered me was that this multimillion dollar basket ball player who accepted this baby as his and was willing to pay extra so she could have a private room post partum, was willing to let the rest of her medical bills be paid for by public assistance./

I'm sorry, sports figures making millions of dollars is something that has always really really bugged me. I don't think anyone should get millions of dollars for getting to play ball for a living. And then to hear THIS story, I'm just so PO'ed right now...

I don't have a problem with them making millions for playing ball. After all they wouldn't earn that if people didn't pay to watch them, and people do pay to watch them. The problem I have is when these people make so much and don't give back to the community. If you are living in a $10 million home and there are families in our country that struggle to feed their children, you should not be sleeping well if you are not giving back to the community. I think that it has been shown time and time again that being wealthy does not make you a good and decent person. Thankfully there are A LOT of wealthy people out there that are very good and decent people. (and then there are the "poor" folks that donate time, gotta love em)
