Last night a friend of mine and his wife went to the ER because his wife was having a miscarriage. I was there for morale support. She was bleeding pretty badly. They tested the blood to see if her blood type had something to do with it. Evidently A- can be a problem if the baby ends up with a different type. Well the test ruled that out but indicated that her hormones were too not be pregnant. Evidently she had twins and lost only one. Very weird and they said technology impossible. My friend said the same thing happened to his aunt.

I didn't know they had a spectator bleacher section for me to sit and watch all day. And you're ignorantly referring the RH negative.

How is this "weird"? Tragic if anything.

Working in an ER in kentucky, had a guy come in with a 60 watt light bulb that he shoved in his arse. He was notorious for having batteries, cars, etc in there. We are speaking w the surgeon on how to remove it without breaking it and causing serious damage. He comes walking by saying hes leaving. Come to find out, he shite the whole bulb out intact into the trash can.

my bad.

no but many years ago i got an inadvertent elbow to the top of the head in a basketball game and it made a pretty nasty gash. Went to the ER after the game (i did try to play but it kept opening up and bleeding everywhere) and sat in the waiting area for about an hour with a blood soaked towel on my head and the occasional blood dripping on the ground. There was a bad accident that night so I wasn't a priority.

It was funny looking at the mostly colored folks in the ER with their coughs and sniffles, while i'm sitting there bleeding all over the place. I thought the ER was for, you know, emergencies. Learned something new that day. I ended up leaving and not getting the staples that i should have waited for. They told me they weren't going to get to me for another few hours likely.
I left the ER with a bad head laceration b/c the wait was too long, yet others with a cold sat there and waited god knows how long.

I still have a patch of no hair where the scar is on my head. Pretty easy to see when my hair is short.

I knew a woman who was don't she had miscarried but apparently far enough along that she had to carry it the rest of the term. Then one night she went into labor and delivered one stillborn and one live. She had no idea she was carrying twins. Dr's said it was apparently positioned so they could not see it in the early ultrasounds.

A Spanish only speaking clown, in full outfit, asked me for my autograph and 9 cents to buy funyons from the vending machine.

He was waiting for a friend, another clown, and it turned out he was bleeding from his foot but didn't see it worth his time to seek treatment and he was just there to support his friend.
