Re: ODT SUNDAY DEC 3 ~ SAT DEC 9
HOLLY,........IT LOOKS LIKE I ERRED ON THAT ADVICE TO DEVONNE. BUT I HAD FOUND THAT WHEN ONE GOES INTO THE ER THE PERSON JUST SITS FOR WHAT MAY BE HOURS BEFORE ANYONE, AND I MEAN ANYONE, BUT THE ADMITTING CLERK, SEES THEM. THAT IS NOT TRIAGE AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED. OF COURSE, THAT IS MY EXPERIENCE FROM YEARS AGO. OTHER EXPERIENCE WAS FROM AMBULANCE ARRIVALS WHICH GETS IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. ACCORDING TO YOU ITS DIFFERENT NOW WHEN ONE WALKS IN AT THE ER, AND IF IT IS, FOR THAT I AM THANKFUL.
MY HANDS ARE SLAPPED.

Re: ODT SUNDAY DEC 3 ~ SAT DEC 9
Sandra, the blocks are for two lap quilts. They will be 5 blocks across and 5 blocks down (12" blocks), so 60x60? Since I'm doing my first Quilt As You Go method, the size will probably change, lol! 
I got a good laugh out of your fake your symptoms, so no harm done. This has been a learning experience for me. Gary called me and I asked him if this has happened before. He said yes, 2 or 3 times but this was the worse one. Emily said he has panic attacks. I never knew this. Guess I've learned a lot in the last two days, lol! When Billy was having a stroke, they put us in the waiting room! I went and told the admitting clerk my husband was having a stroke and needs to be seen now. They took him straight back.
I got 7 blocks done after Carter and Greg left. These are not embroidered.

Re: ODT SUNDAY DEC 3 ~ SAT DEC 9
My ER experiences - once I went for back pain, had to wait a while. Another time I went for chest pain, was seen immediately. So, yes, triage was used both times!
