    Anybody who has worked in a hospital has em but today was especially fun. It started with a code gray ER being called ( violent person).

    When I got there I saw a man about 5'8" and 140lbs standing on a stretcher wearing nothing but nipple rings and a foley catheter. This HUGE cop (I'm 6'3" 240 and he dwarfed me) was trying to calm him down while the nutjob was trying to kick anyone who came near him. All of a sudden this dude does a beautiful swan dive face first into the floor. No clue why he dove but I'd give a solid 9.4. We all jumped back as blood squirted everywhere and this guys just jumps up and starts calling the cop names. The cop threatened three times he would taze him if he didn't calm down.

    This is where I got to witness something I'd never seen. The little guy yelled "taze me you jellyroll eatin sonofabitch" and the cop did just that. One wire hit him directly in the forehead, another in the chest and both stuck. This seemed to piss off the little guy as he promised to kill said jellyroll eater. The look on this cops face was priceless, and I'm sure most of us responding to the code had the same look, as this guy jumped a solid 8 foot to the cop and took him down. This is when 4 of us grabbed the guy and the cop cuffed him and took him away. The taser wires were still attached when he got in the car, still naked with his cath somehow still attached too.

    Wrestling a naked foley only wearing crazy dude wasn't what I had in mind for a Monday morning, but now I've seen a guy get tazed and all it did was pissed him off. So today was a pretty cool day in my book.

    Oh and his girlfriend was trying to tell us he was on xanax. What else was the follow up question but no answers yet.

    I was half passed out in the ER when I was awoke to a stabbing victim being wheeled in, some kid at a club that got a knife in the belling for who knows what. I'd rather be shot that stabbed anyday

    unfortunately i was in the ER a few weeks ago with my wife, A car wreck victim came in and i got to see his 95% amputated leg (only the skin was keepng it from falling to the floor) dangling from the stretcher and the trail of blood. I never thought the smell of blood was that strong/pungent.

    do huh? I can mention no name stuff. I can't call him by any identifiers (although nipple rings and a foley narrow things down, it's not a government excepted identifier).

    so much confusion over HIPAA. I also have never mentioned the name of the hospital.

    I've told this story before.

    We were at a family reunion and had a softball game going. My mother was the pitcher and for some of the smaller kids, she stood a little closer. Well she forgot to stand back when one of my uncles (in his 40's at the time) hit a line drive right into her face.

    So we're at the emergency room - me and my sister, my father (Bob) and my mother with the bloody nose and two black eyes - waiting to get called. My mother sees a cop walking by and she says out loud "Jesus Bob, I wish you hadn't hit me so hard". Cop does a double take and walks back. My mother is laughing, my father is pale white like "oh shit". Fortunately the cop recognized us and my mother told him that she was just joking. Cop said "Are you sure?" and she says yes, I just took a softball off the nose.
