10 YEARS AGO!

This was really fucked up and I was angry at the nurses!
This is another reason why I was never given Prosthetic legs because they knew they fucked up with my operation and they screwed up with cutting my legs off.
I was just left to rot, I complained and it was brushed under the carpet, yet again.
None of the staff are there anymore, I don't even know who operated on me either.

Now bearing in mind, update 1, being moved out of your room, you're hot sticky, leaky dressings...etc...not condusive to a happy mindset.
So Jason's asleep, stress is tiring, physio boss comes in, after 2wks holiday- nice I guess. Talks about how Jason is and how OT have said how brilliantly he transfers from bed to wheelchair. So Jason mentions the plans going forwards for him to go to the Rutsons Ward(rehabilitaion) at the Friarage in Northallerton...'oh you won't go there!' she pipes up, 'you don't need rehab!', 'you'll just go to a care home until you get re-housed!' So, we discuss this. No says we, Wound Care Nurse and Doctors and Psych, organising Friarage, so Jason can get his wounds dressed by Wound Care Nurse and NO ONE ELSE, we'll be in right place, Jason can get fitter and more independant, THEN go to property! Apparently, because he can transfer from bed to chair, they wouldn't take him for rehab. Despite ALL their promises, of getting him 'independent' before he goes anywhere - he can't even use the commode chair to go to the loo for christsakes!And even if he could get into it, it is impossible for him to clean himself as he can't reach anything! He can't get into his chair by himself, he needs someone there to hold it or it moves, if anything isn't on the bed or his table he can't get it, he can't get his clothes to get dressed, can't wash himself properly, if he is in his wheelchair he can't get out of the room coz the chair is too wide and needs both doors open, he can't even wash his hands coz the bed's in the way and the chair won't fit into the bathroom! Yeah great guys, REAL independent! Plus Jason asked about what happens if he falls out of his chair, how does he get back in? Oh yeah that's REALLY difficult to do, we don't know how YOU would get back into it without a hoist! Utter bollocks! Like there are no other people with no legs out there, who live independent lives and CAN get in their wheelchairs from the ground! What a crock! EVERYBODY who's lost legs, has to face this, what do they expect if Jason gets knocked out of his chair in the street, I have to run and get a hoist? No you LEARN how to do it you idiot! Plus, and I SWEAR I will swing for this woman- yet again, she has said Jason CAN have aesthetic legs to make him look like he has legs for his wheelchair but he' WON'T get prosthetic legs! ARGH!!!!!!!!!! Yes the legs they have there are, well crap! But they are NOT the only ones in the country, there are many different types, some fibreglass, some carbon fibre, some flex, most are robotic and some are training 'little' legs called STUBBIES, NOT the crappy ones they have with a 'dial' to turn to bend your 'knee', that look like the ones that Douglas Bader had in WW2! Oh I really could swing for her, there is NO reason on earth why Jason can't walk again, if he choses to do so, I will move Hell and Earth and I pity the fool who gets in my way, to enable him to do so! But the main issue is, Jason DOES NOT want to end up in a freaking Care home! He's 38yrs old, they don't seem to care what this could do to him psychologically! The Psych lady has already put in her report that she would worry for his state of mind if that were to happen, not half as much as I do! He was almost on the edge of tears and so angry at the same time! Eveyrthing they promised, they're trying to squirm out of! Plus, get this, we were talking to one of the Hostesses, who we get on really well with, she said a guy was just taken into room 26, from A&E, the room that Jason, vacated, JUST so it could be painted, strangely, hasn't been painted at all! Sigh...I have to sigh to calm myself down, not a happy Candy, coz her Jason is being pissed about and it's just not good enough!
I know full well, they think they can get away with this coz Jason is the perfect patient. Oh yeah, they've also know decided, he doesn't need IV antibiotics any more and tomorrow will be taking oral antibiotics! Now how the hell they have figured this out, when no bloods have been taken, since the post op ones, which showed elevated infection levels, I do not know. Maybe they are psychic and have made the decision that way? Or Candy, in the morning, tells them to take some bloods, test them and get a Dr to come and tell Jason that, instead of some crappy useless Nurse! Sigh...
Like I said, one of those days you just want to start again with a different outcome...oh well, lets see what tomorrow brings eh?! Sorry for the rant, not happy bunnies at the mo, thanks for reading if you get this far! Candy
