When I was in the ER yesterday I was so dehydrated that they had to hook up IVs and give me bags of ringers. Well, when the first bag was done, they let me try to well...see if I could pee.

Anyway, I was trying to hold my gown to keep what little dignity I had left, and hold the IV bag and all the tubing. They also had taped an oxygen monitor to my finger so I had that dangling.

So I went to the bathroom and Miss Germaphobe proceeded to drop the emtpy IV bag and all the tubing on the nasty bathroom floor. When I tried to catch it all, I got the oxygen monitor on the commode! Then I couldn't get the toilet paper thingie to work and dropped everything on the floor again!

I can't stand to touch my own bathroom floor much less that of the a hospital!

I came straggling out of the bathroom trying to hold everything away from me, but still hold my gown shut! My poor nurse had to clean all the tubing. We couldn't change the IV because I was so dehydrated we couldn't get another IV port going and they had to give me a new Oxygen monitor!

They sent my friend Tammy with me when I had to go to the restroom after that. I had no dignity left, but no tubing hit the floor!
