Nurses really are cool. I also had a really lovely medical student who was in taking notes (histories) on a sort of field trip and she bowled along just as I was freaking about having a spinal tap. She offered to stay with me and hold my hands while they did it, and I was really very grateful for that. She was young and incredibly beautiful and wore a really nice perfume and in my beleagured mental state she was as close as I think I'll ever get to understanding what an angel might be. After it was all over she went away and came back with a Snickers bar for me. I don't even like Snickers but the gesture really cracked open the bottle of emotion located behind my eyes. Everyone though in the hospital was really amazing and its a crime they don't get paid for what they do.

- Yeah, we criticise the hell out of the NHS, but when it comes to the crunch it's pretty good.creative-
- Awww...that's cute.Jaline
- yeah, obviously you weren't in a hospital here in the states. If you were, she woulda stolen your wallet during the tap.Point5
