[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 173044, member: 1697"] Yes I am outskirts (far outskirts) of chicago. Yes, have been dealing with the problems of Medicaide/Medicare for 20 years here.....it is not asecret, the politicians acknowledge it, the media acknowledges it....no, hosps do not openly refuse to accept it, they just do not give the proper level of care, and sicharge without doing things, in my husband case, he was brought by ambulance post motorcycle accident to our ER. Head injury (no helmet)bleeding, lacerated liver, dislocated shoulder, extensive road rash ambulance crew was even shocked, er accepted him to an exam bed, and then discharged him, NO xrays, no physical exam, nothing, and hehad altered consciousness. That was not the first time similar has occured, and not just me or my family. My best friends nephew died.....and more, so many more stories, horror stories. There is a neonatal level 1 trauma hospital less than 3 hours east, I am gonna check into going there. with my preg history of 14 miscarraiges, and my husband moms hx of traumatic births and conjoined twins.....and husband agent orange exposure----and now this problem....<sigh> This ob gyne is a high risk one but....... Anyway, LOL.she did sleep several hours last nite, first time since this began. She is in sons room at one end of house. all windows are open in house cuz ac is broken....and, kitchen is at opposite end of house. I just decided to have a cup of coffee, brewed a pot and heard this weak mewling-----mo om mo om.......it was easy child, I went to her, she said mom, did you make coffee? wretch wretch. She could smell it, it woke her up......UG! BUT she IS more alert, much more than she has been.....she even stood up for a few mins....walked to BR. ANd now her boyfriend just arrived, he had not been here in 2 days cuz he was working overtime and catching up his laundry. I am goonna give them a few and then go in and "reassess" I also got some sleep and made a tuna casserole in the nite and had a bite myself.....I feel a lil less frantic this morning.more angry, but less frantic. Maybe the phenergan IS helping a little? I think sleeping was good for her. Oh my.....boyfriend just left, looking ssad? dejected? ~~~ easy child said he was too active, too wiggly, jiggling the bed on her, spilled her pills all over floor...I think she told him to go? <sigh> she is too ill, and he feels so useless and helpless.....I had been planning on giving him some "jobs" to do-- to make him busy and useful- clean THEIR rabbits cage.....FEED their rabbit......maybe go get her some fresh gatorade at store for her to try to drink.....hand HIM phone book, or interneet to check out docs.....while I did some of the other things around the house here. <sigh> [/QUOTE]
