"Hospital Rest"

"Hospital Rest", who the hell came up with that little gem?
There is no possible chance of hospital rest.

It's as stressful as shit, being that in today's medical landscape you ain't there if the insurance company could force you out (read serious problem).

The old saw about they wake you up to give you a sleeping pill, is sort of true. They will even wake you to change batteries in the monitor that's pulling your gown off all the time. But mostly it's just intensive concern for your well being.

I spent four days at PENN Presbyterian in Philly. Even with some plot twists that could come from Hollywood, the care I received was first class plus! Everyone I came in contact with, regardless of pay grade, was eager to make me happy, not just do their job, but make sure I was happy. Honestly, at some points I was looking around for Rod Serling.

It warms the cockles of my heart to see people who still enjoy what they do, and even if the job has lost it's luster, they still try their very best.
