Nurses, aides, etc.

Since I been in rehab, I've tried to be as nice as possible to the staff. For instance there is my friend Joseph from Kenya who sneaks me extra showers which is no small perk. He would come up and whisper "shower?" Best part is most of the therapists couldn't find me. The nurse is great about bringin my pills (12 each morning) plus insulin to me so I am cleared to go eat breakfast whenever I want. Others bring me snacks if I want. They now have me on sugar-free ice cream cups before I go to be. They were short on staff yesterday so the head nurse from each rotation wound up bring me my snack.

I get along with most folk except for on pheibotomist who insisted on coming in at 3:30 am. I refused her once and now she comes in before 9:00 pm. They do take my sugar level around 5:00 am but I can take that.

When my shift nurse left yesterday afternoon, I gave her a big hug. I think she will miss me.

I talked to the doctor this morning. I think he is considering discharging me. I'd hate to have to fire the guy but that' my next move.
