if any of you need an enema, ive got you covered
Alright. So in skills lab today I learned how to give enemas. My teacher told us a story about one of her students and the first time that the student gave a real life enema. An 84 year old patient who hadnt had a bowel movement in A MONTH needed an enema and since thats ridiculous, my teacher didnt believe she hadnt really not had one in a month and thought it would be ok if she let the student do it. So the girl inserts the tube and fills the patient’s butt up with water, but when they help the old lady onto the bedside potty chair, no feces came out. So they give her another enema, and the lady has no problem (usually you put in a small amount and the patient feels like they have to go poop so bad they cant take anymore…so this is kinda odd). So they again help her and barely anything comes out, so Mrs. Krause (the teacher) decides this is an extreme case and decides to do a technique which makes it easier sometimes, which is putting a gloved finger up her butt and twisting slightly. Barely anything comes out. They put in more enema water and try the finger technique again and still, hardly anything comes out. So then they decided to wait a bit and maybe let the enema have more time to work and then after a few minutes the old lady says maybe she is ready, so they help her to the bedside potty chair again, and Mrs. Krause does the ol’ finger technique again, and WHOOSH! She said it was “the worst feces disaster you could imagine”. First the toilet bowl rapidly filled up and started splattering everywhere, all over the bed, the walls, the floor, and them. She said the entire room was covered in feces. I guess they spent 3 hours cleaning it up and had to shower and get it all out of their hair and borrow scrubs to go home in. I could hardly contain my laughter.
Oh, and I failed to mention when I first posted this that she said the air was literally brown.
