The Rustic Chic Life

TGH Pre-op series. Why not? Ms P successfully poked me only once for blood work! After so many stabs for last 3 years, she impressed me. She did it in One shot! I could sure use one Shot - tequila or in the face, both will give me a good headache!! Back in waiting, this time another hallway; it’s like a maze in here. #torontogeneralhospital #mylife #makethebestofit #findhumourineverything

TGH Pre-op Series. Waiting, waiting, & waiting. Waiting room full of waiting faces, just waiting because they have nothing else to do but wait. The floors look shiny here. Next stop, blood work up...

TGH Pre-op Series. Next stop Pharmacist Miss M. Same questions, this time I answered before she asked. Damn I’m getting smarter. Do you smoke, drink, take drugs?? Hmm, makes you sound like a horrible person when you answer yes to all. So I answered Nope, because really I don’t.

Pre-op series @ Toronto General Hospital TGH. What else am I going to do while I wait? First stop: Meeting Nurse O, quite professional and serious, although didn’t want to pose for a photo. I managed to have her crack a smile. Well she got personal with me - swabs in nose, mouth, armpits and yup, my private’s! Glad I showered this morning. Purpose, checking for MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus). MRSA is responsible for several difficult-to-treat infections in humans. #tgh #torontogeneralhospital #nurses #pre-op

It’s up to you to dictate your life, no one else should tell you how it will go down! Unless your name’s Debbie Travis!
