    WOW! 😯
    They must have some really lax protocols. That is just unforgivable. 😡
    Sounds like you might have dodged the Pneumonia, but if you were on strong antibiotics (From transplant) you might have gotten a little help with it then. 😉
    The other stuff, well, I don’t know. But, I’d still be wrapping them around my little finger if I was you. That is bogus. 👿
    Hope everything turns out to be a false alarm, and you can get on with being healthy and happy once again! 😀 *hugs*

      I hope you dodged getting anything and hope whatever you were exposed to doesn’t happen to you on top of everything else that has. Good luck prayers and concerns are with you.

        Find a good lawyer. There is no excuse for incompetence.

        I’m sorry this is happening too. At least you found out. How many hospitals let their patients slip through the cracks…Please keep us posted. My thoughts are with you.

          Maybe you should go to a different hospital with fewer mishaps? I hope you will be ok!

              This whole thing is just stupid. WHY did it take them so long to tell us something was wrong? WHY do we have to sit here and wait for a letter to tell us whats going on? Transplant doesn’t know anything, they just call us friday and say “oh yeah you were exposed to something” and thats it! We still don’t know whats going on and we haven’t gotten this supposed letter yet that will tell us. I’m so pissed off its not even funny. If he’s been exposed why are they not doing any tests? Its like they don’t care, they are the great John’s Hopkins and the patient doesn’t matter.

              I’m hoping if it was something really serious you wouldn’t have to wait for a letter. 😕

                Yeah you would think. Still no letter in the mail 😥

                #700052

                If it was something really contagious, they wouldn’t wait for US mail….I think.

                  When I get exposure letters from my job they send them through the mail a few months later. They usually read something like ” your patient was infected with *blah blah blah*, just thought you would like to know. I don’t get upset unless its something like tb. But yeah I wouldn’t put it past them to make us wait for very important news.

                  #700054

                  Can they at least tell you if the letter was mailed yet? 😕

                    So still no letter today so Danny called his transplant doctor. He talked to the one nurse (who is a female dog) and wanted to know what else he could have been exposed too. She pretty much told him she didn’t know. He told her he wanted to make sure he wasn’t exposed to anything that could harm me or Alyssa and she was just a total b***h to him the whole time. She couldn’t give us any information or tell us anyone that could and to pretty much just wait for the letter. So Danny made an appointment for his primary care doctor tomorrow to get tested just to make sure he doesn’t have anything because of the hospitals screw up.

                      Oh wow, this is just so ridiculous. I really hope everything turns out okay. 🙁
