Funny PACU drama

Okay, so wanna hear about my drama? I'm glad I gave my aunts awesome oatmeal raisin cookies to those nurses cuz they earned it!!! Usually I don't remember anything for awhile in the PACU (at least I think I've been there awhile before I start talking). This time around I remember wheeling towards the OR. I was thinking: where's that Versed? Give me more doc!!! But, then bliss happened and I don't remember anything else until PACU. Which then I remember alot! They want a chest xray, my head was hurting, I'm tense and anxious! All I want is for David the be there to hold my hand!! I beg: "he'll keep me calm, I won't complain, my bp will be better. I want him here!". They tell me about privacy for other patients. I pull out my card: I didn't have a call bell, you (nurse) where over there and I need my husbands hand to hold!!! I was not nice!!!

They finally caved (or finished their work enough) that he could come in to see me. Aaahh, sweet relief!!! I relaxed, let the pain meds work and let the staff work! Of course, we pushed our luck when David wanted to take video of me saying I'm okay!!! We can never leave good enough alone, huh!!!!
So, David went back to waiting and I calmed down to awaiting my transfer to ICU! I'm sure my nurse was happy for report! Hopefully she enjoyed some cookies and can get a good laugh from me! Thank you for your patience!!!!

So see y'all: I'm not strong - I'm a whiney baby!!!
