Skilled nursing facility sorry about that. Yes it was horrible the first night ( I had only been there maybe hour) I overheard a staff member ask another staff member " man, what's wrong with her face". I was horrified. Not because my face was swollen and looked uneven but because I was expected to entrust my healthcare to these people. I did speak up and some changes were made but unfortunetly the tone had already been set. On a more positive note I'm happy tto be home,I'm happy to have my trachea out. Trying not to stress about radiation or my next surgery. Again thank you for having this forum. I can't find the words to express how grateful I am for this outlet.
