My wife was constipated, crying, and asking for help. The doctor came in and we told him that she has not gone in 7-8 days and he said not to worry, she will go. The nurses had been giving her several laxatives for 5 days. On the day we were leaving, she started crying and needed to go to the bathroom. The nurse came in and gave her some meds to go. 30 minutes later my wife pleaded for me to go get someone. I got Jennifer Palm, she dropped everything she was doing and came to help my wife. Jennifer was going to give her an enema, I asked if she needed help and she said, "no I got this". 15 minutes later, my wife was "OKAY". What a load off my mind! It is hard to see your mate hurting. I told Jennifer she was a great nurse and knew what to do!
