My Favorite Nurse, Chadly!!!

Seven (7) medications, at different times and different quantities. Chadly is the best nurse keeping track of it all! :-)

I was released from the hospital at 9:30 AM. It’s crazy to think I was in the shared hospital room for only 12 hours, however, I am excited to get home and see all my babies! Today is the first day of holiday break for the kids, and SIL, Shannon, has so many fun plans for them while Chad comes to pick me up.

For prescriptions, the nightly nurse said they can fill them all there at the UIHC, so we won’t have to stop anywhere on our way home. She said it’s “great” and “awesome” because they’ll have a little bag with my name on it as I’m being wheeled out. How COOL, I thought!

Yeah, no, that is NOT what happened at all. Unfortunately, the morning nurse didn’t submit my drugs until I left my room, so when I got to the pharmacy they had just gotten the request. Just a 30 min. wait and we were on our way!
