Well, I started this posting, The Hospital because I have never been an eye witness to the treatment that is given by hospitals.  I am sure this is not the norm and from what I am told Memorial Medical Center is supposed to be a pretty good hospitals – compared to what I wonder.  If this was a vision of a normal weekend at Memorial, I would hate to see it when things are actually screwed up!!! 

Let see if I can wrap this posting up… basically, it was horrible.  I am sure it could have been worse, but gosh it was bad.  I literally went through every emotion while I stayed with him in the hospital.  I was scared, angry, worried, concerned…then just happy and relieved when he finally got out. 

I am just tired thinking about it.  A friend of mine was in this same hospital a couple of years ago for a routine hernia surgery and almost died because a lovely lady decided to position his feeding tube incorrectly and it went to his lungs or something.  He was in intensive care with fluid in his lungs.  

How do people sleep at night when they are responsible for the care of real live human beings yet they are so reckless, careless, thoughtless and pure heartless.  I couldn’t do it.  

I am sure there are those that are in the medical profession for the right reasons – to actually help others and give them the best care possible, but it seems like more people today are in the medical profession simply for a paycheck or a job.  Compassion should be a requirement for anyone that works in a hospital or nursing home.  

With the times as crazy as they are lately we should be careful and not lose our compassion for one another – that would be a horrible quality to lose….
