Re: Pain? yes Appt? yes Relief? ????
Denise, your concern is something that I was thinking about when I was left in a corridor. At the same time an elderly woman was brought in and I overheard that she had no family or friends. I recall being so worried for her because, in the long run, I ( like you) would speak up for myself and had a support system. She was alone in the world on a stretcher.
I still think about her many years later Maybe I fear that it could be me someday......
