ReplyDeleteNights and weekends are free, aren't they?
If their appendixes ruptured before midnight then they'd be bumping all the boob-jobs, liposuctions and other "essential" medical procedures from their O.R. times!
ReplyDeleteFrom volunteering at an ER, I know how tough RNs have it sometimes. Keep fighting the good fight, Xavier!
ReplyDeleteYep, I had my appendix out at 2 am in December just to keep the night people at the hospital on their toes!!
ReplyDeleteJust kidding, I actually went to urgent care and started the process at 7 pm, 2 am was when they finally gave me a CAT scan and found out she was gonna blow momentarily. In my defense, I had non-classic symptoms, so I was a difficult diagnosis.
I also was the only patient in the OR at that hour, so I got great service.
