Well, I've always thought your average deer was slightly insane. Now you tell me they're cannibals as well? Yeah, that tracks. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sylverthorne Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 I. Hate being right. I don't know who might be likely to have issues with random medical hell, but I'mma slap it under a spoiler, just in case. It's not graphic or horrible or anything, but it was a long day. Spoiler Yesterday was Surprise!Surgery (okay, we knew it was happening, but the scheduling was - no. Excuse me. IS - so out of whack that we didn't know when, exactly. Which is fantastic, considering the stuff you have to have done beforehand). Anyway. Surgery! They wanted to take the crap off Andi's foot injury. They wanted to put a wound-vac on it. Did they send the wound vac to the hospital? No, that would have made sense. They courier'd it to the house. It didn't make it before we had to leave, and of course, they needed this specific piece of gear to finish the surgery. I ended up hopping back in the car, leaving Andi to molder around the waiting area while I went back to the house to see if this thing had even made it to the right house, pick it up, and come all the way back... did I mention that's an hour, one way, if traffic cooperates? At least I no longer need guidance to get to that specific hospital, despite the fact that they're tearing up everything and sundry to put lightrail in (I approve of this! This is a good thing!) and the road destruction in the area is epic and hard to predict. I got there, and of course they'd already pulled him in to start prep. That was sometime after four. The nice lady at the desk was, however, the same one who'd checked us in two hours ago, and I guess I'm memorable (must be the hat). So they got their wayward equipment and I went and got a cup of iced coffee and a muffin and proceeded to read my book and watch beetles outside in the shade (yesterday was Warm. I was not amused). I finally got to pick Andi up sometime in the vicinity of half-past ... seven. Last time, he was pretty well fine. This time, he couldn't keep water down, which was .. not amusing when they only sent one barfbag. Whatever; I got him home and cleaned up and we all crashed. I had a feeling it was going to be a regular flustercluck, and dear tiny gods, was I ever right. Flip side of this, the supply of paper towels and garbage bags in the car got renewed. Does anyone /not/ carry a roll of paper towels and a supply of garbage bags in their car? *sigh* I am really looking forward to having the filtration installed. That will be one less thing to worry about. I haven't had a lot of time to paint this month. I don't approve. 😕 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pegazus Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Just got a second follow up email plea at work for everyone to please review a document as they have had very little feedback so far. Being the nice guy I am, and a little burnt out as I start checklist #2 of 8 consisting of 400 line items, I jump in to the reviewing tool to see what it is. Not that onerous of a title but quite high level. Then I noticed that it is 496 pages long. I found the reason you aren’t getting much feedback. 1 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 @Sylverthorne you are both in my prayers. And yes, I do carry paper towels in the truck and car. First aid kit, etc. what can I say, I was a Boy Scout. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never know when something sticky/icky will need to be wiped off of whatever, hands included. Besides, sometimes a moist towel to the face/neck just helps pull things into better focus.
