Dialysis, today, went smoothly on the machine, but as far as my weigh-in and weigh-out was concerned, they did not go as smooth as the machine did. They were embarrassing. 😳. The fact is this, I did not weigh-out because the director, Jaime had me so frustrated that I could not stand anymore. He lectured me about how I am getting on the scale is not safe and that I need to bring my sling to weigh-in and weigh-out from now on and bring the sling on Monday because the way I have been doing it all this time is not working. How dare ANYONE talk to a patient like that, right? Well, it happened, and this made me angry that my body refused to stand on the scale by the fourth try. I have had enough of MercyHealth telling me what to do or say that I am not ready to live on my own. I have had trouble with MercyHealth for two years now that I have found a primary doctor at SSM Health/St. Mary’s, and plan to have dialysis through them instead in the near future, because also, dialysis techs and nurses have left their jobs at the dialysis clinic in the past year since they have moved from the Henry Palmer building to the Miss Michael Barry building as of July 11, 2023. A technician was planning on not working for the clinic once it moved from building to building but IS working for them to this day. Bless her heart for sticking around. This tech’s mother has passed away from cancer, and she was one of the family members who step up to the plate to take care of her mom 👩. I like this technician a lot.
