Some of you know, my girlfriend, Linny, went to Hawaii to visit her daughter last February. That was great for her, except she had a major stroke while she was there and ended up in the hospital.

The application of the blood-thinner, Clauseril, was, of course, the absolute WRONG thing to do. As I tried several times to explain to the Cardiologist, Linny had a blood clot in her leg from a skiing accident a couple of years ago. The Clauseril simply began breaking off pieces of the clot and caused more strokes until it came to the point where she was bed-ridden, unable to speak or use her hands and arms.

Eventually, the doctor called in an Arterial Surgeon who removed the clot. At that point Linny began to improve rapidly. Then she had a heart attack in the hospital (heart attack and stroke are not the same). :eek:

Then they put in a Pace-Maker. Unfortunately, the instrument they put in was defective and they had to replace it. :eek:

Now it's September and Linny is using her arms, talking and so on. She's even in physical therapy to learn to walk again. But the Doctor fucked up <shaking head>. He made the mistake of talking about Linny with her daughter IN FRONT OF LINNY. So she bit him. Almost took off a piece of his hand. :D

So the Doctor (unbelievable!) filed suit again Linny for assault!

Oh, it gets better. :rolleyes:

Two days later the physical therapist comes into Linny's room, stands her up on her feet and walks off. Naturally she fell, injuring her back. Now she's filed suit against the hospital. :eek:

Finally, the good news - Linny gets out of the hospital tomorrow after EIGHT MONTHS. She still in physical therapy, but she should be home by Christmas :D
 
I'm so glad she'll be home for Christmas...but blimey, thats one hell of a year to go through!
 
Linny has always been a trial. But she's a great person. It's sad this past year has been so bad for her :(
 
jeeze! Wouldn't wish any of that on my worst enemy... Hope Christmas makes up for all the crap :rose:
 
That's one of the worst stories I have ever heard... :eek:

I sure hope that things get better for her, and give her my best wishes.
 
Hope she rebounds soon!!
Too bad it was just his hand she bit ;)...yeah....I don't care for doctors much
 
yeah, I'm sorry to hear that, i hope your girl-friend doesn't have to deal with any more shit for a nice long time. :)
 
Thank you all both Linny and me. For someone who's never been sick a day in her life... :rolleyes:
 
Boy, can I sympathise. As one who has never been ill, this last year is sure taking its revenge. The more contact with doctors and hospitals, the less faith I have in their guesswork.

Wish Linny (and you) well, Christmas is for being together.
