Last night I had to take Ali to the emergency room. She fell on her wrist while playing soccer in the back yard. I thought she may have broken, thank goodness it is just a really bad sprain! Well we got there at 7:20 at night. We didn't even get in to see the Triage Nurse until after 8:30pm!!! I thought Triage was supposed to be fast service. Seen immediately to assess the situation then if waiting had to occur at least you were seen. We were taken to x-ray about 9pm. We were taken back to the rooms, now we weren't given a room, just another waiting room back where the rooms were at 10:10pm. They look at her wrist, in the 2nd waiting room, look again at the x-rays and see that it is just a sprain. We were given an ace bandage and sent home after 10:30pm. We spent 3 hrs there to be seen for 30 secs!!! I was thankful that it wasnt broken... we might still be there waiting Now!!!

I think (fos) a lot of hospitals are slow like that...I know Strong is...unless you are squirting blood like in the movie kill bill.

I'm glad it wasn't anything too serious.

What was up with that blood in kill bill? Man it was like someone broke a fire hydrant.

I think they were trying to make it comic strip like, ya know - like everything was like POW! BAM! and exaggerated like a comic strip. That's Tarantino's style for ya.

OOOOooooooooooooooohhhhhh I love Stephen king. Although I missed Kingdom Hospital. I watched 2 episodes, but it started right about the time I had Munchkin. I guess I will wait till it comes out on DVD and buy it then. I really liked what I did watch!
