She then tells me that when I get out of the hospital, she won't be living at our place anymore." "The nurse walks in between her and me, gives the now-ex a look that would peel paint, says 'that's enough' and wheels me into the operating theatre."
""The nurse walks in between her and me, gives the now-ex a look that would peel paint, says 'that's enough' and wheels me into the operating theatre. The nurse came to check on me every day as I recovered and was sure to connect me to support services for when I went home. Here's the kicker - I'd been working two jobs to help put the ex through pre-med.""
I was dumped while being wheeled into emergency surgery after surgical complications, lying on a gurney and bleeding heavily while the partner requested to speak. The partner told me that upon discharge she would no longer live at their shared home. A nurse intervened, physically positioning herself between the patient and the partner, told the partner 'that's enough', and wheeled the patient into the operating theatre. The nurse then checked daily during recovery, arranged connections to support services, and provided ongoing care. The patient had been working two jobs to help the ex through pre-med.
