Queen's Meme: The Crazy Hospital Meme

1. What is the strangest thing that has ever happened to you in a hospital (besides your illness)? Not enough towels? No condiments? Can't get your favorite channels? Come on, you can tell me. **Or....maybe this answer doesn't involve you being the patient.** ::: When I was in labor, I found it weird that when meals were served they didn't come with utensils and I was asked if I had one with me (we were asked to leave everything behind when we entered the room so of course I did NOT have any utensils or even my underwear on! c'mon). Anyway, the point is, they would ask us to pay for the utensils. :::

2. If you had your choice of IV cocktails, what would you choose?

::: Margaritas! :::

3. Tell us your funniest hospital story.

::: It's not exactly funny, its more like embarrassing! I find it weird having male interns/nurses/doctors around me when I was in labor. If I had my way, I'd prefer an all girl staff when I give birth next. :::

4. Do you have any hospital phobias?

::: Not really. :::

5. Imagine you are in bed trying to get some sleep after a long night of interruptions by the nurse on duty who would NOT stop waking you up to see if you were asleep...It is 3am. You finally get to sleep. She comes in at 3:15 and wakes you up again. What happens next?

::: I'd probably just ignore her. This happened to me recently, nurses come and go and continually get your vital stats every couple of minutes. I usually don't sit up, let them do their thing (while my eyes are closed) and get back to sleep when they are done. :::

6. You are stuck in the elevator with an attractive person of the opposite sex. You notice there is no wedding band. Do you strike up a conversation? If so, what is the first thing you would say?

::: No I don't strike a conversation. Although he doesn't have a wedding band on, I do. :::


7. A very odd patient wanders into your room from the upstairs psychiatric ward. What do you do?

::: I would push the button to call the nurse. I don't know how to handle an "odd" person. I get really nervous around them. :::
