I must reiterate here - my MISTAKE-
Kelly did NOT sign herself out AMA. Her dr wrote her discharge orders at 8am this morning and she was to be released if (1) she had not had any pain meds (she hadn't) if (2) she finished her REMICAID (she did) (3) and if she ate lunch without pain or getting sick (she did that too). She finished her remicaid and lunch around 1ish and her nurse just kept putting her off - saying she had other things to do. (she apparently had just one other patient) when Kelly's mom got there she went to ask if Kelly could be discharged and the nurse bit her mom's head off saying she was too busy and was nasty. So Kelly slipped her IV out and taped the cotton over it and off they went which if the dr. wrote discharge instructions and the nurse was being a b**** is NOT signing self out AMA.


She is tired but doing ok otherwise and is sorry we all worried about her. **silly girl** we LOVE her
