What a drama queen: They left me in a building, so they owe me MILLIONS and MILLIONS of dollars.
KA-CHING!!!!
It’s not so much that. They left her unmonitored while she was under anesthesia, and from what I understand, that is a HUGE no-no. I had “sedation dentistry” done a while back to fix a broken and impacted back tooth and even though that doesn’t actually knock you fully out, just loopy, the dentist was required to keep me on a blood pressure, heart, and finger O2 monitor the entire time, until I started to come back coherent again.
If you’re a wuss like me, BTW, sedation dentistry is awesome. I am a firm believer in it. Then again, I have to have nitrous just to have a good vigorous cleaning...

Negligent retards deserve the spear.
“What a drama queen: They left me in a building”
Leaving her in the building is worth 20 cents or so. Leaving her alone while under general anesthetic is worth millions. That is a potentially life threatening situation.
It’s not just a matter of being a drama queen- leaving a patient under general anaesthesia unattended can kill. She was very lucky.
Actually ... being put under general anaesthesia is serious business. I've known folks who either have died, or nearly died, under anaesthesia because something went wrong.
If the folks in that office are so negligent as to leave a patient in that condition, they deserve to be slapped hard.
Of course, we have to take the "IF" part of that comment pretty seriously.
Sounds like an inside job ... :-)
