Level Of Difficulty at Work: 2 out of 10 (10+ hours in the hospital!)
NapTime During Lunch: zee-ro
Pages of Nelson Demille's Charmed School read while at the hospital: 142

Well.. at 7am, they told me to go to the hospital to hang out with this pregnant lady, well i get there and the hospital staff said it's covered. I get back at 7:35am and then at 8:20 i was sent to the hospital following the ambulance, talk about ambulance chaser. heh.
I had to hang with this guy who was having a 'sickle cell crisis'.. It doesn't sound like a real thing but i guess once in a while people with sickle cell go though this crazy pain all over their body. I saw this guy injected with probably at least 8 units of morphine during the 10hours of hanging out. And it was kinda useless for me. They kinda knew that they couldn't release him if he's in that much pain. The medics coulda sent them to the hospital unit which had room, but Nooo.. must be in observation and then the team of doctors come to agree. Heck i've been with him for 10 hours, i agree.. Bring him up..
It's interesting to see what nurses can do to find a vien for the IV. Oh and i saw someone getting their scalp stapled.. ya whoa mama!
