I sat in ER yesterday for myself for 6 hours!!! What did I do to myself your asking? Well I slipped in a patients room and landed right on my knee cap! I lost my balance and there I went! I was so EMBARRASSED! there was a cop in the room interviewing a patient, 2 patients, and 3 visitors and 2 nurses! the patient in one of the bed's with cop leaned up in bed and kind of bending over his rails, this id funny, just picture all this, asked "Mam, are you OK?" there I kind of laid, trying not to let them see me cry cause of the pain, just shook my head with my hair in my eyes! it's funny to me, NOW. so I now have to wear an immobilizer and go see that horrible workman's comp doc!!! the ER. doctor thinks I might have either, torn or stretched some cartilage, or toren or stretched a tendon! I THINK I cracked my knee cap, what ever it is it hurts like heck, its hurts so bad when its touched, it feels like someone is poking a hot needle in it, when touched. yip, I should have listened to myself and stayed home, wanted too so bad, but then something was telling me to go in, that patients needed me, so I listened to "right thing" to do. I think I'm going to off for a while, although our employee health department is great about finding us work to do, and I'm meaning that in a sarcastic way. I'll keep you all posted.

Oh my gosh! I hope they let you stay off awhile. The knees are one of the things that don't heal quickly, and seem to be forever tender. Take care of yourself, Read something interesting about somebody whose worse off then you and you'll be counting your blessings it wasn't your head you bumped.
Ow...I pray it heals quickly. selahV
