This video came to mind today while I was waiting in the fast-track lab to get blood drawn. A man had the most gnarly cough, everyone around him looked green from the sound of his lung-gunk and I just wanted to scream "EXPLAIN YOUR COUGH!!!":)
hahahah! i just had my very own experience of this on tuesday! somebody, who's name shall remain secret (but i'll tell you later) coughed through an entire 45 min. meeting. From the head of the table. coughed right down the center toward us all. without properly covering with the newly designated inner elbow. i was APPALLED. and grossed out, and distracted from the meeting topic. GROSS. and rude. i moved back from the table 3 feet and had i owned a mask like yours? i would have put that baby right on. lets see.... its now 2 days out, lets hope i get through the weekend without symptoms. so i get it! and i haven't had a bone marrow transplant!! sheesh, laura.... there ought to be a law. xox (sorry for going on and on.)
BBT is one of our favorite shows here at the Fraijo abode. Laura, you are so funny and I love your positive attitude. When you get back home and life goes back to normal, I hope you publish this blog in a book for others going through this horrible nightmare to read. Thinking about you all the time and praying for your healing to continue without complications and pain! xoxox CAL (self-designated Crazy Aunt Lizzie)
I just saw that episode in tonight's Bang marathon. So funny and pathetically true;-) You were in a lab and exposed to this? And no medical staff did anything ? That's bad. I hope you were well protected. Take care of yourself. Enjoy the clinic free weekend. Live, Chris
I just love BBT. How appropriate that scene. Did you ever notice that MOST people don't cover their mouth when they sneeze or cough. Ugh. Enjoy your weekend off and seeing you Dad. Nan
