My son is in the hospital in Texas. He’s been there since March 1. I call him Saturdays. Well they take forever to answer the phone over there so you have to keep calling.

Well yesterday I called like 3 times in 20 minutes. Maybe a little much but the lady who picked up the phone yelled at me and then hung up. She’s like “The nurse isn’t going to stop what she’s doing to answer the phone!!! She’ll call you back!!! Thank You!!!” And then she hung up. I don’t know the nurses schedule over there. Damn.

They never called me back though. So I tried later in the day to call but my phone evidently wasn’t working. I couldn’t dial them. I think they may have blocked my number. Idk.

Evidently they don’t have a secretary to man the phones.

Sounds pretty lame. Getting calls is a big part of sanity in the hospital. Maybe they’d prefer it if he called you.

When I was in the US in hospital there was a public phone in the hallway. Other patients would pick up the phone and yell your name if it was for you.

In Belgium I just got to keep my cell phone and I had a private land line phone in my room.

Different countries. Different ways.

Yeah all the wards I was in had public phones, even the one that I got sent to as part of my jail sentence.

Jail sentence in a ward?

I was in jail awaiting trial but they deemed me unfit to stand trial mentally so they sent me to a mental ward where they finally gave me the medicine I needed (the guards at the jail refused to medicate me during my first 4 months in jail, I kept begging them to give me the medicine, told them it was prescribed to me, they ignored me and I got nothing so I went insane) so that I could stand trial.

Anyway after getting meds at that place I regained my senses and was able to go to trial. Then they dismissed all the charges and I was let go shortly thereafter.

It’s nuts how they refused to give me my medicine for 4 months though. Nobody’s gonna get in trouble for that either, no one cares. When you’re a prisoner you’re dirt to them.

Thanks! I don’t think about it much anymore. I think I went a whole year without thinking about it once when we first moved back to Virginia. I got out just in time, they say 5 months is when monkeys in solitary break.

So it’s a good idea to stay out of jail if you can, at least in America. They are rough places!

Dang, Loke. That’s awful. When my daughter was in the hospital, it was like that but with nicer people answering. I can’t believe they blocked you; obviously, you’re worried about your son. I understand that they are busy and working, but you’d think they’d have a little compassion that the people they are trying to help have loved ones who are worried. I hope your son is better soon.

I have a killer migraine today. Storm coming in tonight, I think. Ugh. I love the weather changes here (as opposed to south Texas) but I hate that every change gives me a migraine.

They’re usually very nice. I think they have a few rude ppl working there. Imo if you’re rude and hateful you shouldn’t work as a healthcare provider.

He couldn’t see that well
