Well they take it every hour to check your heart enzymes. Some idiot has me marked down as diabetic so I'm poked a couple times a day for that. I'm not. I questioned them and found out that's what heart patients get just for the low fat. They take blood to check for infection and I finally just stopped asking and held my arm out.

I have crappy veins so it takes several people a couple stabs and then fishing around to find it and get the needle in right. Did I mention that I'm on blood thinners? I bleed like crazy over the least thing.

my opinion is they are selling the extra blood to vampires. Or maybe they have a blood pudding side business going on. lol

Ohhh my. Hopefully this horrible thing will turn good. Are you home yet... Are you on the healing end of it all?

 

[rIrs roost]

Yes

All are the same age except for the baby with the messed up wing.

I definitely thought this was a roo. Gotta keep him.see his wing. That's where the broody tried to eat him. Think I'll call him lucky. Pearl is still trying to send pics. Anyone else wanna guess?

Not really. Just a little fuzz. He's probably around three weeks
