So I work in a hospital. My floor is the OBG/PEDS floor. So I deal with all the drama of starting a family. It's mostly whos the daddy, whats the last name of the baby going to be, and what drugs was the mother taking. I'm just going to say that the girls that are having babies today are absolutely ridiculous! If your going to have a baby why on earth would you smoke weed or do meth?? If drugs are that more important then you shouldve just terminated the pregnancy while the baby had a chance. If your going to bring a child into the world at least make sure that they wont have withdrawls and you arent going to be investigated by dfacs. I mean come on. Its common sense people! When you know that the doctor does drug screens you and your still coming up possitive. That just blows my mind.
We also do surgery post op care. Some surgeries that are done on women like hysterectomys and tubals are considered enough for over the night care. Well some women that come up there are wimpy! This woman today had a complete break down because the doctor wouldnt prescribe her the amount of pain medicine she wanted. This women knew her meds and wanted a certain amount to where she wouldnt be able to feel anything! The least of her worries was her 9 month old son she had at home waiting on her. When someone comes up to our floor and causes so much of a problem to where we are tension free when they leave that says something isnt right. Also her husband wasnt acting like this was anything new.
So thats my rant for the day. Everyday when I work I experience the best and worst in people. Some break my heart and some make me happy to be working there. So in conclusion people these days are rude, inconsiderate of others, and just plain crazy. I was raised with manners and respect. I guess we are officially screwed when we become old and need the younger kids to take care of us. Fingers Crossed!
I will never understand the appeal of drugs. I never wanted to do them even before I got pregnant/had kids. I don't like not having control over my own body, and I cannot figure out why anyone would. But when you are pregnant it is just wrong.. those poor babies! I don't think I could handle seeing that on a regular basis!
ReplyDeleteThat is awful. You know, people do things they shouldn't. That is part of life, but when you have kids, either do it right, or don't even get pregnant.
ReplyDeleteI always thought it would be cool to be around that unit all day, but I guess all the drama probably wouldn't make it quite as fine.
