I've been at the hospital since 7:45 this morning. My poor Grandma came into the emergency room last night and was admitted to the hospital this morning. She had dangerously low sodium levels, so I have been with her all day/night today, just hangin out.
But right now...
Right now I'm thirsty. Dehydrated in fact. And, the snackbar closes at 8pm...however, for your convenience, reopens at 11. Wonderful. Conveniently I will only have to wait 2 hours to drink something.
It's actually a good thing that I am a genius because I had a fantastic idea. PATIENTS can get drinks/food after hours...So, because my Grandma was hungry and I was going to order a sandwich for her anyway, I say to the Nurse "I need to get a turkey sandwich for my Grandma, and she would also love a grape juice!" She informs me that there is no grape juice and says "Does your Grandma like cranberry juice?" "Yes, she definitely likes cranberry juice, that will be perfect!"
**Side note- I failed to mention the plan to get me a drink to my Grandma and she just happens to NOT be a fan of Cranberry juice.**
The Nurse comes in with the sandwich and the juice and says here you go!! My Grandma says, thanks so much, and one more thing..can I please have a drink? The nurse looks at her kind of confused and says yeah! Here is your cranberry :) My Grandma then says oh, I dont like Cranberry, can I please have a Diet?
Um. Awkward.
The cranberry juice was delicious though and I am no longer thirsty. Plan A was sort of a success!
