I ,@ this moment, find myself in the emergency room for the second time in the last 1.5weeks. I Loath ER! The last trip had me taking my panic ridden, barely breathing father to the Alec . I really hate it there because that is where under the direction of a ccrotchety nurse, and against my better judgement, I lost my baby and no choice but to flush her tiny, very tiny, being down a hospital toilet. I hate the Alec.
Tonight I find myself at the U. Typically not a trigger for me. Other than the fact that Gran died here, I find it a decent place. It is the place that saved my husband as a child and likewise my Timby, but it is an ER. And the wait is insane!
Sitting here, catching up on email and bogs, ( yay iPhone) a frantic couple comes in. And I know, even before I see the blood and cots dripping down her legs and soaking through her beautiful skirt, she is loosing her child.
That's what I find the most hard, that in any moment, on any given day-BOOM! There is the memory, there come the tears, the pain & the nurses snarky voice saying " well you could go home, but if you could save this pregnancy, wouldn't you want to at least try?"
I LOATH the ER!

Sometimes I think we should set up a committee, and sit in ER's in rotation, giving companionship with women who are losing their babies.
Why do the nurses have to be so awful?
So sorry Lins.
I have never experienced that or known someone going through that but I can imagine that it is just horrible.
I can totally sympathise. :( I never went to the ER, just stayed home, which I am glad of. My u/s tech was a total bitch though. Why are people so damn insensitive?
How come you are at the ER now?? Thinking of you, I will call you soon! xoxo
