i went in feb 5th 2013
 and they kept me untill the 15th
 how bad did i want to leave there

 geeze the vampire came in every 6hours
 to draw my blood
 the only place they could draw any blood was on my foot
 for i had ivs in my left arm  so many dang times
 its not funny

if anyone needs to have there parathyoids taken out
i dont know if you would think twice about doing it

i already stated im not going back in the hospitol
i dont care... even if i have to run and hide some where
 to avoid going in again... if i get sick i will stay that way

Gregory had needles in the foot just yesterday, because there was no other available real estate to get bloods from.  We are sitting around here in his hospital room.  He is very sympathetic of your experience Babycake.  He says, 'if anyone thinks being ill in hospital would be a breeze, come here and I'll give you a needle in the foot!'.

It's really hard to recover from anything in a hospital.  I guess they're necessary evils.

I think I just may have nightmares tonight involving needles and feet.   :o
