I had my first experience with the procedure called the PICC line; the doctor who did it used no pain killer and of all the things done that was the most painful. The second one I had to have I refused to have it done. My first one left a deep impression on me and I would have fought it all the way.
But for one nurse I still would not have it done. Angela talk me down and said she would stand by me and make sure I would have plenty of pain killer which she did and everything went smooth. Thank nurses of her caliber in the hospital, she stood by me through everything.
