Hi Patty,
Your pissy fit would be called a hissy fit here. Whatever you call it you are entitled.
Your post took me back to my week in intensive care with all the tubes including tracheotomy and nose feeding. A lot of the staff would talk as though I was not there.
Remember a young physiotherapist yelling at me. I wrote down that even though I could not talk I was not deaf. She took that on board for about 10 minutes
Reading all your posts and am sorry for what you are going through but still love the see your sense of humour come through.
Love
Gabriele
