"I'm pushing the button as we speak."

[WilliamPitt]

I was just on the phone with Andy. I told him not to be a tough guy and to use that push-button morphine medicator as often as he needs to.

"Oh, I'm pushing the button as we speak," he says. "This is the good stuff."

Fuckin Andy. :)

1. Phew...

When I read the thread title I thought you had just heard from Frist.

2. Yeah, man, that ol' morphine drip is the greatest!

It forgives a multitude of sins. I've been there. It IS the good stuff.

3. Good for him

I wouldn't mind a drip right now, but I wouldn't want to go through what he did for it.

4. I love that guy.

I've met tons of great folks here on DU, and he's amongst the finest. :)

5. Good.

I left that message for him, I am certain his nurses already told him to do that but the old nurse in me just couldn't let it go.

Will, for some reason I can't get logged onto your blog, I was going to go in and leave a good message. I just wanted to tell you that I am sorry you have to deal with that crap and I can't get in to help. :shrug:

So Andy is singing and using his Morphine. Good deal. Andy, you are THE MAN!

6. He has cracked me up...

both times I've talked to him since the surgery. He's a hoot...especially on the "good drugs".

Oh, and I was right...he doesn't remember a thing from talking to me last night. Bwahahahahahaha. :evilgrin:

11. Morphine is pretty cool.

When I had my c-section I refused to push the button. I was afraid of the side effects of it getting into my breast milk. My best friend comes waltzing in to visit and the first thing she did was grab that handle and push the button. Throughout the whole visit she kept pushing the button. She pushed it one last time as she was leaving,put it in my hand and said "How often can you brag about getting good drugs legally? Knock yourself out until it's all gone."
After that I took her advice. Life was so good that day.

12. haa how cool. Offer him chocolate

I remember weaseling for chocolate once when I had a morphine pump.

Yes, indeed, I remember weaseling for chocolate.

Wow, far out, I'm glad to know Andy is doing well.

:D
