Another Moan
Yesterday [Friday]afternoon I rang the District nurses,to ask when I was due for a change of dressing on my melanoma,& was told quite teresly 'Tomorrow', I explained that the dressing had come off & I had taped it back on with micro tape,I was still told ' 'Tomorrow', I got cross then & asked " Did you hear what I said ,my dressing has come off my wound & Ive taped it back on" .I got a reply that the "message would be passed on "
Just after 7 PM igot a phone call from D.N asking IF I still wanted someone to call, I said Its up to you & explained again that the dressing had come off. I was told someone would call later, but by 9.30 pm no one had called ,so I rang again as I was very tired,Yes ,they said someone would be there within the hour.Finally just after 10 PM 2 nurses came & put on a clean dressing ,I was so tired ,glad to get to bed. This morning I rang to ask when they were returning & was told someone would come today,then again on Monday.Here we are at 8,45 pm & still no nurse.I hope they wont arrive now,the dressing seems secure for tonight
