In reply to the discussion: I'm in the ER for the second time in 3 weeks, and they're going to admit me today. [View all]LuckyCharms
(19,543 posts)105. THANK YOU ALL. YOU'RE THE BEST.
I'm still alive. IV antibiotic drip. Pain meds being alternated between Fentinyl, morphine and Norco.
Guy next to me snored all night like a drunk polar bear.
Flirting with the nurses, making them laugh. They are wonderful.
Not sure how long I'll be here. Insurance may kick me out at some point and make me get home rehab and antibiotic infusions.
You should hear this bastard snore.He's still at it at 700 AM. He's not friendly. Walked by his bed and said hello when going to the bathroom, and he ignored me.
My wife will visit me today after her boyfriend goes home. Just kidding.
Have a nice day everyone, and thanks for the kind words.

Are we listed in your will alphabetically? If so, my new username is A1. I will spend the $2 wisely at the race track.

It's so good to read this! I am sorry you have to deal with a grouchy snorer, though, and I hope he'll be released
