Can you please email me back PLEASE because I have no idea how its going to be when ever we get to go home. My email add. is rafael.reyes12@yahoo.com

clueless

Wow. That reminds me of the clueless EMS guy who was in our living room taking apart a pen to do an emergency trach...our nurse looked at him and calmly said, "Put the pen down. She's already got a trach. We need to downsize again. Mom's got it." It was then that I realized the term "medical expert" is a too-widely used term. Question your doctors, nurses, everyone. They are only human, and they don't always know what they're doing in times of crisis!
