A great doctor.

I had been experiencing incredible pain and I knew I having found out a long time ago that I had a very high tolerance to medications of any kind. I was getting two dressing changes every day, this is when they removed all the my bandages, then washed my wounds, and then replaced every bandage after applying the medications. This was an incredible painful experience. I am in this hospital bed with a tube my throat, which makes it almost impossible to talk, but I had to say something to my doctor because I was absolutely suffering. I could barely talk, and appealed to my doctor to please increase the pain medication, because what they were giving me was not doing the job. Thankfully, she listened to me and increased the medication that I absolutely needed to control the pain. I now think that I would not have survived the initial part of my recovery without her helping me to control the pain. I thanked this woman and sent her card for Christmas thanking her for listening to me. During these first weeks of my recovery, I do not have many clear memories of what happened, but this situation involving the pain medication was very prominent in my mind, thank you doctor again. Next post is about family.
