I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am that the hospital you were in treated you so badly!!! that is so awful!!! This is a very serious operation, and you go through alot! I am so sorry you had to go through it alone, I just hope all is better now, it will take about a month before you really start feeling pretty good. I hope you will write a letter to the head hospital person and let them know how you were treated.There are alot of people out there without jobs that could use one, and do a better job than that! sounds like they are only in it for the money. That really made me sad to hear that, you take care,wishing you a speedy recovery, and much happiness Betty <!--more--> ===== youv'e got to sing, like you don't need the money, Love,like you'll never get hurt.Youv'e got to Dance, Dance, Dance,Like nobodys watching, It has to come from the heart, If you want it to work.Betty Hello, my name is Betty, I had my surgery this past

I made it!!!!! went in friday we showed up an hour early as there was no traffic and a good thing as they ended up wanting to take me in early I was in the OR bfore 11:15 an hour early. Surgery had no complications and then by 5 I was in my own room, Unfortunately that is when my horror story begins!!!! I had teh WORST care ever at Portland Adventist! The nurses were rude wouldn't get me any water, yelled at me and said I was moving too slowly ( Oh sorry I have a catheder hanging out of me, I am doped on morphine and I just had my guts rearranged )They would put my "clean beedding and my robe on the floor walk over them then put them on me! Left me alone for LOOOOONG periods of time 4-6 hours where no one would check in on me. Unfortunatly my family were mostly up in washington with my mom who also just had a different surgery so I really didn't have anyone there to stick up for me. I came home early so I could get out of there! <!--more--> I am feeling much better today after finally getting some sleep last night, I DO WANT TO THANK SANDRA Turchan ANd LINDA for coming in saturday and seeing me that was very speicial and ment ALOT TO ME!!!!!!! So far no problems am eating between 1 - 1.5 oz a meal, carnation instant breakfast, cottage cheese, refried beans mixed in tonight (hopfully that will settle!)
