All too true too often...
Don't you just hate when that happens ?
That's some good info give to the on-coming nurse!
'And sometimes more' Would that be a shart?
Was taking history from a patient when he had a bad coughing fit. He ended up with explosive diarrhea that he tracked from the bed to the toilet. The stench was so bad, we could smell it down the hall. Poor guy was so mortified
it happens when you get old....and sick!
It's so good to have you back!!!!
Been there with a parent suffering from chemo side effects. As if the suffering weren't enough, it is so heartbreaking to observe the humiliation and loss of dignity. I can't muster even a chuckle at this kind of an anecdote.
It's the only time I multitask!
