Hospital Visits


We have become regular visitors of hospitals recently. Sometimes it was a quick visit with positive results, other times it was long visits with everyone sleeping in the waiting room chairs--only to hear bad news in the end. After days on end inside the walls of a hospital, we've decided that we don't like hospitals very much! Yes, we are very thankful for the medical staff that helped us and our loved ones--we are very appreciative of their skills. But the whole "hospital atmosphere"--ICK! The sights, sounds, smells, feel, and yes, even taste(of hospital food!)--it just doesn't ever "feel like home." Is there anyone who would RATHER be at a hospital instead of resting comfortably at home? I guess there can be exceptions to this, but to us, we REALLY were glad to get home and climb into our own beds(when we were finally able to do so!). Oh, hospitals--we love you for helping us, but we hate being within those cold, sterile walls!
