Night at the LSU

I went into the clinic yesterday afternoon for platelets. After my blood tests came back, they also wanted to give me a couple of units of blood. It was getting too late in the day for them ( the Hemotology / Oncology clinic) to get it done before they closed so they set me up over at the LSU. Since a bed wasn't going to be available until 9, I decided to go ahead and spend the night there. Two units of blood takes about 4 hours to transfuse.
It wasn't as bad as I expected. They had too many lights on but it was quiet. I also had the absolute worst mattress of all time. Most of the hospital mattresses have a pnuematic system that adjusts them to avoid bed sores. I woke up and my mattress was sloping to the right. I'm glad I didn't slide out.
