I so agree, they both are so sweet ♥️⭐️♥️⭐️♥️

Juju was tough! 💪🏼 💕

He is so gentle with wiping down ger face.

I'm sorry for your loss

So the boyfriend claims to be her interpreter, but when the doctor asks her questions she answers in perfect english. I say he's full of bullsh!t.

@@kefelonia1 She obviously didn't need an interpreter but can you blame him for wanting to stay with her?

❤❤1❤❤1

Her English is just fine. Boyfriend just wanted to stay with her💝So sweet. 💜

Women can't loose self control as men can.. we have to fight trough it... all our issues are minimised & medical gaslighting happens way ofter to women. What do you do when you're only choice is to go forward..

Don't need to be sexist

It's just a finger bro, how painful can it be

@@thesunrislet’s have your fingers decapitated and you tell us how painful that is amputation of any limb be it finger or leg is one of the most painful things never mind all of the pain a person goes through once they are attached and have to do rehab

I love your comment overall but I don't understand why you are more upset when it's someone elderly. They have lived their life. They know time is limited. So many have been/are waiting to go. I think that's beautiful in a way

One of the best comments I've seen on a show like this. Thank you! You're absolutely right❤

Fellow icu nurse (and mom) here. I’d say the same thing: Go to the wedding. Chances are if the sister could talk, she would say the same thing. Your babies are only babies for so long, then they grow up and it’s new milestones and celebrations such as weddings. Don’t miss it.

TBF it would be demoralizing if she attended a wedding for a marraige that only lasted 2 years, and yet wasnt there for her sister. Its not as easy as youre making it.

As a sister of seven of us yes I would want them to go to the wedding I’m in safe hands and what will be will be our love of of family is first. You can’t do anything for me but hang around go celebrate another family memories while you can life is short, I really know that i wouldn’t want them hanging around waiting, celebrate for me and my beautiful nephew wedding 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ if anything happens they would know I would totally understand and love that they celebrate a future of our family first ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I agree, I'm also an RN but my daughter is an Intern at the RMH & my advice to her was to be very nice to the Nurses, keep ahold of your pen & never put your stethoscope down! (Bloody expensive it was too, birthday present, and I had it engraved). Best wishes from the Clare Valley in South Australia 🇦🇺 ❤

This right here. If she were concious..she probably would have told her to go to the wedding

I agree. Wedding first, unconscious sister, after.

100% I've been in that situation a couple of times. I felt so much guilt for one specific time but I had to remind myself that being there ASAP isn't always the answer

I've had laughing gas before. It didn't take the pain away but you just don't care. It was awesome.

Her boyfriend really just wanted to be by her side. But I do think there was a few things he helped her with, such as explaining about the pins in her fingers.

And the little furry thing on her head.💝

It really is! I'm a geriatric nurse. I once had a client named Ada, she was so lovely .

Hopefully, she'll get a ring on one of those fingers...he's definitely a "keeper"!!

I had a local to get one of mine out years ago

If you can go with something with lesser risks & wears out really fast. That's better.. You SHOULD ALWAYS start with the less strong/risky. And if that fails then & only then you go to something more potent. Lidocaine is as anything else 100% risk free. It costs money so why use the more expensive alternative if there isn't mutch difference in the wished effect? Lidocaine can trigger allergic reactions. There are sideffects. The ONLY benefit would been to dampen the bleeding a bit. So that improves your work bcs you can see better what you are doing without the blood. It worked out fine & she got a free training exercise. All that laughing really works your core 😂 and it was less invasive. You should always strive towards the non-invasive. Bcs that is also a way to stop other/further infections.

Have you ever had local anesthetic injected into your ear? It would hurt like mad going into such thin tissue, fluid needs a place to go!

​@@cindycreateforlifewhew you're right about that. I've had local anesthetic injected multiple times due to a chronic health condition and I couldn't imagine how much it would hurt in the ear

When I was young, I got my bellybutton pierced. It got infected and had puss coming out, so they had to cut part of the round ring to get it out. I got nothing. It felt like he was pulling and ripping it out. Hurt like hell. I gritted my teeth and had tears coming down my face. He finally got it out. I thought it was gushing blood. I wasn't. He cleaned it, bandaged it, and left. The nurse came in, and I explained what had just happened, and she apologized. Found out later, I am allergic to the metal the ring was made of. Crazy.

I was wondering the same thing!

The quick glance I got, it looks like an oral airway used sometimes in the field vs a traditional et tube. There are nasal ones that go up the nostrils too. I’m an icu nurse. Sometimes if emts need to try to protect an airway fast, but aren’t medics and can’t intubate with an et tube, a patient will have them. They’ll probably change the airway out. We keep all of these types of airways on our unit “just in case”. But most of ours will have traditional ET tubes.

😂😂😂 I think it was him or his camp mates

Not slow- they think out every move to avoid a rush malpractice. Panic creates issues- calm and collected saves lives.

The more experienced and well trained a team is the less they panic and rush. E.g. paramedics in Australia are taught to never run and always assess as they walk up to a scene.

oh yes let them work in chaos and see if it doesn't cause a problem..

Yep it’s given routinely in most surgeries and as pain control in hospital environments

Absolutely, in the US, it's very common to get it.

Yes, it absolutely is; that’s where its use originated, just like a lot of street drugs. (Cocaine was originally a local anaesthetic, for example, which is why, for example, lidocaine has the same ending as cocaine-drugs ending in -caine are all local anaesthetics.) The fentanyl you need to be afraid of is _street_ fentanyl, which is often adulterated with other drugs; medical practitioners obviously don’t get their fentanyl from street dealers. This is the downside of the over-emphasis on the tragic deaths caused by street fentanyl whilst neglecting to mention that there are perfectly safe uses for it (such as when administered by medical professionals), AFAIC. Those deaths should be talked about, obviously, people need to be warned of the danger of street fentanyl and opioid addiction; however it shouldn’t be to the neglect of telling people there are legitimate and safe uses they _don’t_ have to worry about as well.

Or carry your own!!

Yeah because an imaginary man spent 12hours reattaching them 🙄

Because fentanyl is a lot more powerful than morphine as for ketamine it’s more useful as it has amnestic properties so it becomes more useful when people break limbs and need it reset as it allows the patient to be in a sleep like state and a forgetful state so it allows for them to straighten bones out and so that’s why they tend to prefer these types of medications as opposed to just morphine

More people are allergic to morphine or a bad experience. They still give dilaudid, but if the pain is still high, they use fentanyl. They don't use ketamine here in the US. Well, in very rare cases. I've heard of only 2 cases the used it. In 15 years. You will not go home with any of these drugs and have to go to pain management office if pain is still bad.

When Pain Management patients need surgery they normally need different types of medications to deal with pain. Ketamine is actually being used more in those patients.

Street drugs are dangerous because they are _not_ administered by medical professionals under controlled conditions, and/or because they have extremely damaging effects on the human body that do not outweigh the benefits of using them. Most illicit drugs originated as legal pharmaceuticals prescribed by doctors, and the medical use _predates_ the illicit use. You have the causality here reversed. Fentanyl and ketamine are safe if a medical professional is giving them to you and you do not have an allergy or intolerance to them (though ketamine makes you feel _very_ weird); I have had ketamine given to me in a medical setting, and, in fact, _cannot_ be given morphine (or fentanyl, for that matter) because I have an intolerance to it, codeine, and likely all other opioids as well. You’re basically saying I should have one of the safe alternatives to a drug I cannot take made inaccessible to me just because some foolish people out there abuse it. In addition, ketamine’s dissociative effects are _extremely_ useful in making it so people do not remember having extremely painful medical procedures-such as resecting a dislocated joint or getting a chest drain put in-done to them. The fact that fentanyl is much stronger than morphine also makes it useful to suppress pain that morphine simply cannot manage in some patients. Sometimes, morphine just _isn’t enough._ In short: just because people abuse a drug doesn’t mean it isn’t safe to use in controlled settings.

@@gidget_ This. I have a morphine intolerance (different from an allergy, but proscribes opioid use for those with such an intolerance regardless). That bars me from being given fentanyl as well, so ketamine is one of the only safe alternatives I have. I’d opt for a different anaesthetic/analgesic given the choice (I don’t like how I feel on it), but if ketamine is the only option available to me in a given circumstance, I’ll take it. In medical settings only, of course.

Agree

Because He has nothing to do with the patients’ outcome. The outcome is due to the skill of the doctors and other medical professionals treating them. People like you denigrate medical practitioners and all of the hard work and years of education they put into their skills and practise by attributing _their_ labour to God and/or Christ. Thank _the professionals_ first and foremost, _then_ you can thank God/Christ for blessing those professionals with the talent, intelligence, fortitude, and compassion they need to do what they do. Also, not everyone is a Christian, or even religious. You cannot expect people to thank a deity they do not believe in (and have _every right_ to not believe in, no matter whether you agree with that or not) for their positive outcomes. Good for you if you’re a Christian, but also good for other people if they’re not, whatever their beliefs are in that area. Quit disrespecting medical staff and people’s right not to ascribe to Christianity. That’s exactly what you’re doing in your comment.

Who pissed in your cereals this morning

@@Clogs2002 lololol you're too funny!

The animal joke isn't appropriate

@@bell6012 It's not a joke to the slaughtered animals.
