Oh yeah, I ran into another nurse who was treated as a child too in a medical hospital. Veterans her experience what worse even though she didn’t get two shots of a sedative or three shots in a open wound which was scary for a kid and painful. It was worse. The doctor back then as we were the same age group ordered a alcohol pack to a dog bite on her face. Alcohol and not the kind you drink. She didn’t have a good nurse and told her if she doesn’t stop screaming from the pain she was going to put her in the closet. She put her in the closet. Military hospitals back then. Made me miss my country doctor in Wisconsin although I’m a regular hospital ER back then I needed sutures from a fall at age 4 on my chin and the doctor decided it would be pretty quick and not numb the site. I remember my parents arguing with him about it and left the room, they couldn’t watch. It wasn’t as fast as he thought. Without my parents and worrying about getting in trouble it was on. It took 7 of them to hold me still.
