I just can't wait to go home. I'm usually never this agitated or frustrated, but this visit has been truly awful. Infectious Disease are the only people I'm not mad at.

This morning no one was on the same page then ID came in like a boss and did what they're made to do. They made a game plan and everyone is following it.

This morning I almost started flipping on a Dr because what he was saying sounded dumb so I called my dad and he let me scream and vent at him then he asked me if I have the Budlight Virus

for all the stress but also at your dad!! And for the ID people lol

These dogs come here all day long and are trained for therapy on this floor.

The suits are so they don't catch anything

I've seen their therapy dogs a lot. This one was a border collie named Sam. I'm not a border collie fan but there's this cute little ewok looking dog and I hope he comes tomorrow. He loves me. His owner kept telling him they had to go last time and he wouldn't I was crocheting hats and I was putting them on his head and he loved it. He would pretend to fall asleep every time she would tell him they had to go, I was crying from laughing so hard. She said she never saw him connect with anyone like that. She said usually he listens, but he didn't want to leave me

Awwww that’s so awesome!!!

@KDOGG331 my dog Molly could come here too if she wanted to visit. She's in the hospitals system from when I stayed here two weeks. We just had to have her paperwork, they had to call the vet, and my husband had to groom her before she came.

That’s awesome!! I’ve always wanted to have a therapy dog and make visits and stuff. Always thought it’d be neat. I bet schools would be a lot of fun too or like those reading programs they have.

I think they're going to give me Valium too because I don't like going in the tube at all. Maybe if my head was facing out I'd be fine, but you go head first.

I just want to know why that one spot in my back hurts so much when she pushed on it I swear I was going to slap her

OMG!!

But also I totally sympathize. I hate those machines!! They freak me out!! I’ve had both an MRI and a CAT scan before and they’re so loud and freaky and claustrophobic and I hate them lol of course being in the hospital stresses me out anyway but still haha

 

[ShrekDawg]

No, I have not.

I’ll have to find it. It’s awesome haha I think they wanted to study them So they trained them how to go in the machine

I thought it was for people to play with while they are in there

Lol no! They trained them how to sit still in it so they could study the dogs lol although not sure how accurate it is to generalize for all dogs considering only extremely calm well behaved dogs would be able to stay still long enough

LMAO me too!! Or I’d move and have to restart it. But they were studying the dogs. Lol

 

[ShrekDawg]

This video’s a bit long but it talks about the whole study. I found it pretty interesting. The first half is all the training and stuff that went into it which was neat to see.

 

[ShrekDawg]

Here’s a much shorter clip lol

 

[FortCluck]

That's pretty cool
