Everyday is an adventure, or misadventure as the case may be. It is the latter that makes for the best stories, inspiring the name of my blog. I'm a nurse and an attorney (and way too silly sometimes). I am retired now. WELCOME to my blog! This is a work of fiction inspired by true events. The patients I refer to are a patchwork quilt of various patient's problems mixed together. If you think you recognize someone, you are wrong. These people do not really exist.
Apparently unfamiliar with human anatomy, my patient wanted to know if her urinary catheter also took care of poop. When I answered no, she was disappointed. It was news to her that pee and poop come out of different orifices.

maybe she thought we are like birds or something... that is just weird.
thanks for the kind comment... I will be in good hands at the hospital...it is a good one.
Please tell me she wasn't blonde!
You cathed her because she has a UTI right?? Glad I don't have to wash her underpants!! Hee Hee
*shakes head*.....
I don't remember that in school. I must have missed that day too. :)
Madwag, I didn't check her personal anatomy. Maybe she is like a bird.
Connie, lol, her hair was grey. I don't know the original color.
Ern4u, she came with a cath because of a broken hip. She must have a lot of mistakes in her underwear.
Michelle, that was my reaction too.
Gary, hopefully, you figured it out on your own. :)
Was she from Midland Texas? I hear that's not an uncommon misunderstanding with people from that area.
That's funny. My former husband's family was from there. That would explain a lot.
