They LOST MY WIFE
My wife had a histerectomy last Thursday - July 26th 2007. We got up at 6am like normal - it was sheduled for 9am. We went thru all her “Accessorys” to make sure she had what she needed for a two day stay in the hospital. (She had made up Her mind she was NOT going to stay MORE than one night in the hospital!) Ok we leave outa here around 7:30am to make sure we get there and checked in - in plenty of time. First bad omen - we just got three blocks from the house and there was cops and investorgators every where - blues lights all over. We had to slow way down to get thru - WE get to the hospital and following thier instructions - we park where we are told. We get up to the third floor (on the front of the hospital) and get check in.
OK - about 8:30am they take us thru about a dozen halls (2 elevators) to the Pre Op room (My wife looks at me and says “I hope you know where the Hell we are - cause I don’t”) Then we get in Pre-Op - they tell me to wait in the waiting room - which I do :(. Finally they come get me about 20 till 11 (am) - I ask what happen - what took so long? She told me they lost her blood chat and had to redo it. Ok then they took Her back to the operateing room and told me that they would let me know when she went in. So I went back to the waiting room and was standing by the door. About 11:10am - Her Doctor came by and said that she was ready and at the Most - It should take 90 minutes. So I do the math in my head and think - (be back about 12 noon - I’ll be Ok) So I go All the way on the other side of the building to where they “told” me to park at and smoke me a cig - drink a drink and study awhile.
I get back up to the waiting room about 10 minutes after noon 12:10pm. And I wait - And I wait - 12:30 comes - nothing - 1 o’clock comes - nothing - 1:15 comes and I go stand in the hall - where I was when her doc saw me - nothing. Around 1:25 - three nurses aids comes running by me and goes in the pre-op room (where I seen her last) and I’m starting to get a bit nervous. 1:40 comes and I go and ask the recieptionus can she check on my wife - finally she checks and tells me she’s still in Op. So I go out to the hall again (my back don’t hurt so much when I stand) Bout that time - Her Doctor comes by- ask me wheres she at? I tell - ten minutes ago I had checked - and she was still in the operating room - He says “NO NO Her operation went really good and that he had already done another since then” So he goes to the window and ask about her - They tell HIM she’s still in the operating room!!! Well - He gets that straight with them and comes tells me “Every thing’s fine - Your wife surgery went great and she’s in Room 153″ So– about that time her friend Mary shows and we go down to room 153 - we walk in the room to find what? NOBODY! We talk a minte and I go to the nurses station - before I even ask - They tell me - “She’s on the way!” About ten minutes later —- I FOUND MY WIFE! - 3:45 PM !!
