About four yrs ago I had heart attack and open heart surgery..due to complications I was on ventilator and stayed in hospital for 30 days. (this was well known & respected hospital in Atlanta)....I was so weak I couldn’t do anything for myself for long time but eventually they got me up one day in one of those recliner type chairs. I spent the entire night there with no-one checking on me even though I kept buzzing for the nurse. The next day when the shift changed the nurse said “oh good...they got you up for the day”.When I said I was there all night she acted like she didn’t believe me. Many a night I would buzz for nurse or actually call out for help if I got twisted in bed and couldn’t move etc.....no-one came. One night one of my daughters said she would spend the night to help me...she happened to mention this to the lady walking the hall who was in room next to me. Her response “well, good..I hear her calling for help all the time”....
And this is before Obamacare sets in!! Heaven help us...particularly we seniors who already are getting short-changed from Medicare........
I can believe it.... I wish I couldn’t...Yes Heaven help us...
