![]() Let’s just say it’s a good thing I have a lot of self-control because I wanted to slap the nurse for that one. I went out to the nurse’s station three times to try to get someone to give her something to help her calm down (my partner requested medication non-verbally after I asked if that’s what she wanted), and the nurse finally came in, all irritated, saw the state of my partner, got right in her face, looked her in the eyes, and practically yelled, “What’s wrong?” She’s autistic, too, and when the doctor came in and announced she needed emergency surgery, guess what? She had a panic attack and a meltdown. Story time: My partner got terribly sick a few months ago and ended up in the hospital with a gallbladder that had to be removed.
