2001-03-25 - 11:51 am Yesterday, my Mom and I take a day trip to see my Grandma. The whole time thinking that we will go shopping and maybe visit my Uncle Skip. No, the whole day was a mess and slightly ruined. We did go out for lunch and that was the only "FUN" part. Ok, appartenly my Grandma' leg was swollen. She said it hurt really bad. Poor Grandma! So, my Aunt decides while we are their let's take her to the clinic/urgent care. They told us to take her to the hospitial. That took about a half hour. Then we went to lunch at our fave place. That was fun! Then we went to the hospitial. This is were it all fell apart. We got there and showed them what was wrong. Told us to wait till they call her. Ok, so myAunt goes in the room with my Grandma. She comes back 5 minutes later and say she won't stop crying. I siad I'll go back with you. I walk right into the room and my Grandma sees me and smiles! That was good, my Aunt was happy about it. This is were it all starts to fall apart. The doctor comes in examines her leg, says let's get you x-rays and some sort of sonagram thing. She goes to get that done. Comes back almost an hour later. We have been there for a about 2 hours. This whole time we call my Uncle tell him, we will be home soon and get the food out for dinner. As well as call my Grandma's house and tell them what's going on. The docotr comes into the room and says that he has the results to the x-ray and not the other test. Telling us it will take a while and will bring us some sort of dinner. He then leaves all pissed. My Aunt and Mom are thinking let's go across the street and get pizza the three of us and come back. My Grandma hears this and starts to cry. Poor Grandma. Luckily,a nurse walks by and says she has the results and it was negative. As well as she does understand what the doctor is doing. Urrrrggghhh!! The doctor comes back and goes just have her take painkillers as well as see her regular doctor. He said we need to sign out and will bring the papers. Thanks a lot!! We tell my Mom to get the car. My Aunt goes to the desk and says can we have the sign out papers. A whole bunch of nurses are sitting there and one says "We will be there to bring papers in a minute. Just go wait." Urrrgggghhh! My Grandma kept saying I am hungary. 15 minutes goes by and the nurse comes witht he paper. She goes sign here. As well as this is what he says to do. She leaves and my Aunt goes let's get out of here. I am pissed! We spent a total of 5 hours in the hospitial. URRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!! So, we get to my Aunt's house and eat dinner. My Grandma does not eat. She say this tired her out. As well as repeating what she said before about ruining our trip and all. We eat dinner and have cake to celebrate my Uncle's birthday early. Tehn my Mom and leave to go home and get home at 12 am. Urggggghhhhh!! What a fun trip! luv ya, Dara � � |
