Hospital

I'm in the hospital, boooo! Being on the patient side is not very much fun! I love working in the hospital but hate being a patient. I was admitted late Sunday night/ early Monday morning for asthma. They got that under control and now think I may have pneumonia. I am sitting here waiting for a chest x-ray wishing I could go home. I know that I'm not really well enough to go home but I am soooo much better than when I got here. I just want to sleep. It doesn't even have to be in my own bed. Hospitals don't believe in sleep. I know this as a doctor but I also know that in the children's world we actually come in the rooms a lot less during the night unless the patient is really really sick so that the child and families can rest some. I finally got about an hour long un-interrupted nap this afternoon and it was bliss. Prayers would be appreciated for quick healing and doctors to have wisdom.
