Woke up to my roommate screaming for help. He had hip surgery and was sleeping in a wheelchair when he decided to spill into a puddle on the floor. I pushed the call button for a nurse. A nurses aid arrived shortly, but had to get a real nurse to assess damage, leaving me with a crumpled wet sock of an old man screaming for help, grasping and rolling my bed frame, pulling on my blankets and sheets, trying unsuccessfully to get up, his screams rising with pain. It seemed like an hour for help to arrive. But, it was only 7 minutes. Now he is back in bed asleep joining the chorus with my other roommate snoring obnoxiously... ... and I am laying here, wide awake.
