Why I hate hospitals (part 1)




Mike had his surgery to remove the cancerous part of his colon.  His cancer was stage 3a, meaning it had not progressed beyond the wall of the colon but was in a few lymph nodes and so they were removed also.  It was so hard to wait and wait while the surgery was taking place.  He said "now you know what it felt like for me all those times you decided to be sick".  Yeah, ha ha.  Cancer is not the same.  I hate seeing him hurting and so weak.  And I just hate hospitals.  I hate hearing the Code Blue alarm go off and know that somewhere someone is possibly dying.
