Ontario is a calfornian city and Canada province?!?!?!abfdsfjjggffdgfgdgfdgfgffgh
If it wasn't so dangerous to travel right now I'd be in Bakersfield
Albuquerque NM next, sir! Like Pronto
Wait a second, maybe you should pin this as the first comment? I am surprised to scroll thru comments and find this!
What city in Ontario???
I can tell you I worked in an ER and there are certain nurses that love kids, certain nurses that are good with old people, and certain nurses that are willing to help all demographics, and certain nurses that need a new profession! 👍
That is sooooo true, it’s the same for maternity nurses.
So some won’t because of their skin color?
Haha truth
This is true for even my profession. I'm a dietitian working at a psychiatric hospital. I love working with our geriatric parents, others prefer working only with patients who are more mentally stable. I think that's life's way on making sure all patients have the best care.
@@jlt001928 In my 45 years as a nurse, I've never seen that come up. A person is in the wrong career if they refuse patients based on color, religion, sexual preference, etc.
As both a paramedic and an ER RN, his acting out the paramedic and the old burned-out nurse role is spot on.
Are paramedics really that happy and enthusiastic?
@betatest5789
When they get to offload their patient & make them the hospital staff's problem they are.
If you paid me a million a year l could save a JUNKIE. COMPLETELY against my belief
Seriously the paramedic was on point lol!!
As a former RN and paramedic, yes. Yes we are both enthusiastic and jaded. Sure does make life colorful.
Dont judge the o'lady. Judge the men that used the side car.
We... er... they paid.
Why not both?!
@@whatamIdoing__575exactly
I judge both. 😂
Bah ha

Well, he's rich. Rich is rich.

When I was a firefighter/EMT we had an elderly man that had been sick for over a week and got to the point that he couldn't get out of bed. When we got there we knew as soon as the front door opened that we were going to have a bad day. The smell feces mixed with the ammonia from urine had us all gagging. Made it to the room and found him barely conscious. He had a temp of 108 and was sweating like crazy. To get him out of the house we had to get him down a staircase so we chose the body board. Now mind you he was naked this whole time and was covered in feces and urine. We got set up to roll him on his side to get the board under him, I'm standing on the side of the bed between the pt and the board. As we slide the board up to him we hear him say "oh no". Then he had the most explosive diarrhea I've ever seen, and felt. Yes, I was hit chest to knees in the nastiest smelling liquid poo ever. Immediately I started gagging, I grabbed someone next to me and forced him into my position as I then ran outside. I kept from vomiting but trying to take off my bunker gear without actually touching the poop was difficult but I got my pants and coat off (we were in full bunker gear for warmth as this was the middle of winter in the northern midwest). My guys got the pt down the stairs and into the ambulance and got it sent to the hospital. As for me, I was not allowed back into the rig without a quick spray down to get the last of the shit off me. I was perfectly fine with that and my bunker gear was sprayed as well. As soon as we got back to the station I Immediately ran to the showers and washed head to toe literally 4 times trying to get rid of the smell. And that was the shitiest day on the job during my time with that department. This happened 12 years ago and I can still quite distinctly remember that smell.
Whoa, NOT a fun time‼️ One of my unpleasant experiences was way back in the later 1970s, before there was special wall suctioning equipment for neonates (just born infants). I only had the DeLee suction apparatus (a hand held suction device, where one end is in the nurse’s mouth and there’s a collecting jar- - then the other end is placed into the neonate’s mouth and nose) that was used in L &D to remove thick mucus and especially meconium (neonate poop) before the infants first breathe. This neonate had very thick meconium in nose and mouth, so I had to suck extra strength to get it out quickly. The collecting cup portion overfilled and the rest went into my mouth!!!😵💫🤢‼️ The newborn was then able to take its first breath without that meconium gluing it’s lungs closed. As for me, I used up all the sample mouthwash mini-bottles that we had.
C-dif?
I don't think I would have ever lasted long as an EMT. It amazes me what you all run into on a daily basis...some more than other depending on your areas. That sounds like C. Diff poo to me..bless your heart. I was a labor & delivery nurse on night shift for 35 yrs. I mainly worked in University settings where we did a lot of indigent care and such. Every night somebody would say..."You just can't make this stuff up." ,... and you can't. I don't know how anyone could dream of alot of this. Then I was a case manager in the ED for 5 yrs and that was a completely different education in itself. 70 yr old meth addicts is not that uncommon. COVID did not do us any favors on sooo many levels. People have become unsocialized. Coping skills are nil and void.
@slcRN1971 I remember those old timey delees. We had one OB rip a hole in his mask for the delee... WHY??🤷🤷🤷🤷..circa 1989...he was the only one that still used those ancient things. My question to you is ... did you vomit first??? UGH!!

Health care workers are not paid enough.
Surgeons are. Everyone else, not so much.
No one is paid enough. Except your government that approves their own raises. 🤷
Depends on the country
As a nurse, I can confirm everything is accurate. Although, the MOST accurate thing is the doctor wearing the Patagonia jacket while indoors..
@L Mac hey, me too! Lol of course I’m in the south so it takes a little longer for the latest trends to make it down this way.
Oh, my god...right? That Patagonia jacket gets me every time.
Hospitals are cold! Not a nurse but I used to clean in one.
This 💯💯💯
Patagucci 😉
This is incredibly sad. As a former meth addict I have no doubt that this was a real situation. The depths that we sink to to support our addiction are HORRIFYING 😢😢
May God bless and protect you. How did you overcome? We have many people addicted in the poor rural area where I live. So sad. 🙏💕
My cousin has been clean off that stuff for like 4 years. I’m so proud of her.
Congratulations on breaking that cycle! ❤❤
I'm glad you're healthy now. The future needs you.
And the hell we put our family and loved ones through is horrible as well. So devastating that families are torn apart and some relationships are destroyed so thoroughly that even though the addicted person gets clean their family wants nothing to do with them. Which can send the addicted person back to their addictive ways.
Believe me when I say that no alcoholic or addict sets out to become addicted. I didn't wake up one day and decide to become an alcoholic. I was always able to stop my drinking when necessary until I wasn't able to.
I have lost the ability to control my own drinking and that my friend is a sign of a true alcoholic.
I've lost too many friends and family members to the disease of addiction.
My friends and I like to say it is cunning, baffling, powerful and patient.
I have twenty-three years continuous sobriety and I know I am not safe from my alcoholism... One of my friends went back out after 26 years and the guy he went out with ended up dying. He gave up 26 years of clean time. Our friend that died had a young teenager, that he was just rebuilding his relationship with.
I could have gone my whole entire life without that education 😂
I missed it because I was busy looking up what a stoma is.
That's what the woke ppl call "privilege"; be blessed this was your education.
@@NunYaO Naw I’m good. You can keep that. I’ll keep my pressors and dip. You do you boo-boo.
Sometimes, ignorance is a blessing.
That part 😮
As someone who’s worked in the ED, I didn’t break until Philadelphia Sidecar. 😂 Ahhh, the memories. I interviewed a big old farmer in jean overalls once who came in complaining of rectal pain. Long story short there was a zucchini lodged in his colon. When I asked how it got there he said while he was inspecting the fields he fell and it went in. Without missing a beat I asked why there were no holes in his overalls. Silence. Take your time, sir. I’ll be right back.
I used to get “vacuuming naked.” At 3 am. Dude, just say you got freaky with the vegetables, it’s ok.
Cucumber I can understand, but zucchini are prickly!
😮
My favourite will always be walnuts -- whole walnuts -- often several of them -- lodged in people's colons -- happens every year around the holidays.
Patients seem to be "falling" on all kinds of produce while out in those fields 🤨
Exhibitionists like the ER.
You ARE underappreciated. Here's some money for informing me on all the things I never thought about.
Awe that's sweet
And never wanted to know about. 😂
@@tr9066 yeah me neither
Are you giving Steve $5 for a ticket on a Philadelphia Sidecar?
@@KatieDeGo Oh noo 🤣 🤣 🤣
Used to work in an ER, and yeah, stoma sex (and STI in stoma from it) is a thing. As soon as they said "she's a sex worker" and then "she has a colostomy looking a little funky" I knew EXACTLY where this was going...
Never heard of this (thank goodness) even tho a nurse for 40yrs.
You unfortunate creature🤢🤮
Pls no
Yes, my pts husband did that to her. Admitted numerous times for that reason. Disgusting
This sounds like a Reddit story I heard once. And the lady said that exact phrase: “a hole is a hole.🤷🏼♀️”
I have emptied so many foul smelling colostomy bags as a home care worker that the idea of this... "act" made me gag 🤢
Yeah...this one is going to haunt me. A hole is a hole, but they aren't all created equal for all purposes.
Oh my gosh! When you release the gas from a bag it WILL clear a Room. To think anyone would want to get with that.
Same, same. Solidarity sis✌️
Sometimes I have to do the hold my breath trick but then I start to get light headed and dizzy and it snaps me right back to reality
I am in shock and horror by the idea of this... and debating about sharing the horror with my wife.
@@ostrowulf haha yeah I'm going to have a hard time not telling my fellow healthcare workers about this one.
I must have worked in the E.R. too long. I guessed the stoma sex bit waaaay too early in the skit.
I must have been on the internet far, far too long. My brain went there the instant I heard "sex worker" "stoma" and "infection". Not in that order, btw.
ditto...wrong infections but otherwise spot on.
I guessed it as soon as I heard 72y/o meth addicted sex worker w/ colostomy bag😂😂
I had the exact same thought. Surprised that it was syphilis, but then realized 'oh she's 72, so that sounds about right'.
@@SarafinaSummers me too. Don’t work in healthcare, yet.
Yep, saw this when I worked ER. The messed up nurse part of my brain was 😂 and the normal part was screaming “wtf is wrong with you?” The stoma, meth addicts, and the “peds patient” (which everyone seems to have ignored in their horror about the Philadelphia sidecar.) I treated “pediatric”patients for GSWs, STDs, surprise pregnancies, sexual 3:20 3:20 3:20 abuse, physical/emotional abuse, alcohol/drug OD, suicide, and so much more. The scariest for me was a 16 year old who tried to choke herself to death with a heart monitor cord that no one told me was still in the room. This is a cautionary tale for nurses to give and receive full report so that you’re prepared for whatever 💩 show you’re headed into.
Did the girl recover? That's a horrifying situation to walk in on...
I wish I knew. I pray for all of my patients and I hope that she found peace and happiness. That’s the ER life. Patch people up, maybe never see them again, maybe see them as frequent flyers, maybe only on their way to the morgue. Her journey wasn’t for me to know, but I will NEVER forget her.
BSN, RN, CEN, CFRN, EMT-P, now retired. If I had my way, this type of graphic imagery should not be used to entertain the general public. It's why so many of us went for cocktails after work. It is certainly not the way to recruit qualified medical personnel. It really brought back those horrific memories. Patient privacy, patient dignity, not wow stories.
This must happen alot we had a pt in the ed that sold their osteomyelitis hoke for sex. Just not as old or female.
I was a cna years ago. Worked with mostly geriatric patients. Did the traveling nurse thing with my 2 kids young at the time. My patient had a friend that needed help cleaning her place. She asked if my kids could help. So I said yes because place was 2 doors down and a one bedroom. 2 hours later I knocked on her door to get my kids. She paid them infront of me then thanked them. We walked back to our patients place when my kids said she must've been a cop cause she had handcuffs, uniform, even a whip. I had to tell them she worked for the zoo.
🤣🤣
Don’t leave your kids with people 🥴.
Why on earth would you leave your kids with people you don't know?? That was so dangerous! Anything could have happened to them!
Thank you for the concern. Knew her through my patient when I would go to my patients place. Went to her friend's house to help her a bit too. (Made sure she took her meds, needed rides, etc..) My guess, my kids probably stumbled on it while trying to clean.
wonder what they then thought was happening at zoos behind the scenes 😮
that would've freaked me out as a kid possibly more than the truth 😂
I’m a nurse; you’d be surprised how accurate these videos are.
But normal people never believe us.
😂this is accurate! I had an elderly patient from LTC with colostomy with similar issues in this videos. I never see anything or anyone same ever again…
Disturbing
Was trained as a CNA and chose never to work as one cause of what I see. I think I would go insane so I ran away.
My RN sister told me about this happening with colostomy patients. 🤮🤮🤮
The Philadelphia Sidecar is most definitely a real thing, and happens FAR more often than the average person could begin to understand.
I scrubbed ColoRectal for the past 11 years as a first assistant. We’d be taking a diverting colostomy down about once a month and have the patient’s significant other lament the fact that they’d no longer be able to use their partners stoma as a love hole.
What’s even worse is when we’d have to revise the stoma because the significant other basically destroyed it…
😮
It's sad to think some people don't have the ability to tell when something shouldn't be done and to just stop.
Confirmation that men see sex as "holes for male pleasure". No thought given to the partners pleasure.
People wonder why if there are aliens that we don’t have like an Earth wide interaction with them. I TOTALLY understand why, our only use is as a sociological experiment. We are a barbaric species!
@@mettamorph4523yes because all men want to do this lol. Theres fucking sick people out there. No one in their right mind would do that
Can we just appreciate how much Ben really _cares?_ Even tho he's the poster child for perma burnout, & 100% done w. everything, 100% of the time, he still gets upset when a vulnerable patient does something really stupid.

I had to have a colostomy bag for 9 months. As soon as friends found out they all had "a nurse friend that saw ppl with colostomies that were used for sex"
I thought they were full of shit until now.
I remember putting a fresh bag on and my finger slipped while pushing and sealing the part that goes directly around the stoma and even through the bag I wanted to puked. NOTHING is supposed to go in there.
Thank God for reversals
Very lucky, most stoma patients get them *for life* . Omfl
@@Ice.muffin it’s not that bad.
We don’t have to use outhouses.
We can poo standing up, or while asleep.
It’s way easier to do a colonoscopy prep.
Better than colon cancer.
I have seen some of the most foul disgusting comments about ostomies in comment sections. I wish those people would remember they are Very Common and a number of people reading their comment about the vile putrid bag, have ostomies themselves.
And I don’t get the smell complaints. Everyone’s poo smells. Wtf.
@@Puglover130 Ik, I've seen tons of patients with them and I do reckon you get accustomed to them if you have no choice left, as with almost anything in this life. That's how we survive and move on. Needless to say, those you mentioned are worse than immature, ignorant creatures, I don't have hopes for them, but for people who are aware of many essential facts.
“I thought they were full of shit until now” pun intended?😂
Had one as a kid for a month. They used to wash it out by inserting a long ass tube in there. NOT a quality time, I can tell ya!
I could've died happy never knowing situations like this exist...
My god. I had a feeling this was where he was going.
My spouse has a stoma (colostomy) and the Doctor was telling us info about it all while my spouse was lying there on the bed. Then she said "And absolutely no sexy time with the stoma".
The look on our faces (complete and disgusted shock) made her say "You wouldn't believe how many times I actually DO need to say this".
Some people can be real nasty.
The thought of it just made 🤢🤮 well almost
Aww, where's the kink!?🤣
It is sickening that people would do that.
Wth 😱 I can’t believe this is even a thing
Yeah. Even though the threat of dehydration is more important, it's the first thing I learned to teach patients: the importance of not using their stoma as a sex orifice.
Omg. That was gross and hilarious at the same time 😂 always an education
Unappreciated? Not by this individual.
I still didn't understand it 🤷♀️
@@tracilord4854 the guy screwed her where her bag was at . The hole in her side. Just google it. Lol
That “morning Ben!” gave me shivers, like I know that he 100% has the skill to consistently sneak up and and scare the ever living daylights out of me without an ounce of hostility.
I feel really bad for the lady - she must have had a really hard and lonely life to be stuck working as a sex worker at the expense of her own health at her age, just to feed her addictions.
She has naturalized being abused to the point she is completely desensitized .
"A hole is a hole." A ho is a ho. A job is a job. 🤣
Maybe, maybe not. My mom's a meth whore, she had a dad that cared very much, would buy her a whole house just so she wouldn't be homeless. She's just trash the house and mostly live out of her car anyway. Between the unmedicated bipolar and the meth she'd be too paranoid. She was nothing but a rich spoiled child that never got told no... She also incidentally completely destroyed the childhood's of her six children. 🤮
I agree. Thank you for having compassion. It's a rare commodity.
This was my first thought : (
I often get lost down an internet rabbithole and yet I've never ever ended up even coming close to knowing what a Philadelphia sidecar is, until today I guess, and I could have gone the rest of my life very happily not knowing what it is
Damn ☠️ why did I Google
@@goddessbybirth8456 You know that's on your permanent record now. Google never forgets.
Can't disagree with one word of this. I have also ended up in some pretty weird places looking at some seriously f-ed up shite, and I'm normally all about furthering my education and learning new things, but this one ... just ... thanks, steveioe ... I think. 😁

Before going home my nurse said you're the easiest patient I've had today , wish me luck for the rest of the shift lol.
I love how all three nurse characters look like completely different people even thou played by the same person, and the personalities and voices are done perfectly, all three feel like their own people.

Yes they are! And those who defend it calling that compassion are clueless.
I feel so terrible for that woman. Also before the reveal of the sex act, i was saddened. the idea that an old sex worker is gross is really upsetting. We really are terrible about aging.
Also my husband has had a ileostomy bag since he was 11. That sexual act has never even been a thought in my mind.
When they said "sex worker" and "colostomy bag", I knew where it was going. I read a story about a gambling husband who would pimp out his wife just like that.
But
Aren’t they going into their intestines??????? Or do they use the bag?
@@luperdrgz intestines unfortunately
I knew where it was going as well while saying to myself, 'please, no don't go there'. To no avail.

I am so grateful my sister got clean. Seeing videos like this, even as funny as they are, just reminds me to be so grateful that there are resources for addicts to get the help they need or I believe it wouldn't have been long before my sister was in a similar situation.
Those men having sex with stomas need help for their sex addictions
Huge love to all my fellow ostomates in the comments section, sharing information and their stories here.
The stigma attached to having a stoma can only be removed by talking about it, normalising it. Sadly people still choose to die of their diseases rather than have to live with a stoma. Sadly children get bullied to the point of choosing to die because of this stigma. (RIP Seven Bridges)
❤
😢 That’s heartbreaking
I'm ok with talking about it, but hopefully it's never normalized.
I love the first responder so much. I work Search and Rescue (K9 trainer/handler and first response medical team), and it fits a lot of my peers' "jaded yet amused" attitude really well.

Many years ago, I was a nurse at a very large county hospital, for many years. This is amazing, brought back many memories! I love the humor!
When speaking to the doctor, referring to the patient as "meth lady" is extremely accurate (assuming there is only one Meth lady in the ER at that time). It immediately identifies the patient without having to remember names, room numbers, anything.
And how mentally damaging it is for patients to hear themselves being referred to as "the drunk" or the "psych pt." As a nurse, I never did that.

This, however, hit me hard because the fact that there are real people out there doing this breaks not only my heart but my psyche as well. I commented on a short I saw earlier [about the obese patient growing into the carpet...] that we are living in a broken world, and now watching this vid after that just reaffirms my statement.....it's all broken, man.😵💫🤯
I love in a 55 plus building. They're are 80 plus units, high rise. I thought Grandma's and Grandpa's were usually though not always sweet old people. Now? Addicted, sex machines no matter the age, size, nothing matters. Oh my! Oh my!
Is a screwed up world out there
Growing into the carpet…? How…? 😮
The carpet one has started with me. In horror.
I can't believe that that is a thing. Wow, the mind boggles and my stomach churns.
My heart just goes out to the old woman who’s life has been so bad that this is what she has had to resort to in order to survive at her age. It’s sad, and someone should have helped her LONG before this day.
You can’t force someone to get help. The best help is to prevent them from getting started, but telling a young person not to do drugs doesn’t always work. Where I live, pot is legal, so lots of teens get into it because it’s easy to come by… but it’s just a gateway. Like many drugs, you get desensitized to it after a while and you need more or something stronger. I really don’t understand why they legalized it (well, they did it so they would have more control over it, but that didn’t go as planned).
Exactly my thoughts 😢
The problem is that most people who truly NEED help dont want it. Those that want it often dont need it.
"Help" is a very broad term.
Per the skit, it was for meth, not for subsistence.
@@JackVermicelli Did it ever occur to you that the woman was using meth to cope with something? Most people don't start doing hard drugs unless they are trying to numb themselves to some serious pain. Where is your ❤️!?
What if that woman was your grandmother???
I have had a patient exactly like this, only male. He told us its popular in the prison system here and is referred to as an ostitute. The numerous STDs he'd acquired in it caused confusion, he was convinced he was pregnant because his boyfriend (who was sitting next to him) had done the dirty recently
This whole comment is just......alot to unpack. Idk where to even start. I know it's old but dayum 😭😅
I should’ve stopped at, “morning,Ben”… but watching this was like viewing a 17 car wreck.., I couldn’t turn around… disgusting 🤢
I feel sad for that poor lady. A lot of people would just judge and shame a lady like that but she obviously has some problems. Addiction is a hard thing. You can want to stop all you want but you just can’t do it that easily.
I would say the men having sex with her stoma, have sex addictions just as bad as her meth addiction
This HAS to be inspired a real patient encounter, there’s no way there’s this realistic with details and have it be completely fictional
Gross story, but highlights that it's VERY important for nurses and doctors to know all the weirdest things humans do to themselves (and each other). The internet is just a really good source of bizarre current and past practices!
Haha, When I got my illeostomy, after the surgery I was given an after care pamphlet. I thought it was funny that the pamphlet included a warning not to do anything sexual with ur stoma...now I know why! But also yuck I would never let my stoma be messed with by anyone or anything!
Did it really say that in the patient teaching literature?
@@PrimateProductionsyes! it really did,! i just can't remember exactly how they put it, but it was fairly blunt and clinical, along the lines of do not insert a penis into your stoma! Something like that .. I wish i stil had that pamphlet! I remember laughing with my mum, saying who would do tht! Then in the 10 yrs ive had my bag, ive met atleast one guy whose asked bout it. Red flag!!!
@@PrimateProductions Can confirm.
@@laurakeightley9882 no way!
@@PrimateProductions can confirm as well. It's sad that people need to be warned abt this lol. Should be common sense?
I felt that last line on a visceral level. I'm sure the same is true for nurses and EMT's all over the world.
And yeah, EMT's find some *funky* stuff out there in the wilds. At least yall in the hospitals don't have to see/smell/walk in their dwellings.
Heard colostomy and paused the video. Dear god, do I really know what's next or do I just have an f-ed up brain? I knew what was next.
My sister ended up at an inner city ER in college with a broken foot. First words out of the attending “Thank you for not being drunk or high.” 😂.
On a more serious note This. Is. Why. We. Need. Free. Universal. 90 Day. Inpatient Rehab.
It would be far cheaper to health insurance/Medicare/Medicaid to give people a really good shot at getting clean and sober for good than to keep treating them for sepsis, overdose, and all sorts of other horrible life threatening situations they get into because of addiction.
90 days isn't nearly long enough. I'm in the recovery community.
The best way to effect truly positive change in the area of illegal drug addiction is....stop it being illegal. Do the research on countries that have done that: their addiction rates drop (addicts aren't afraid of being arrested/shamed so are more willing to seek treatment), as do OD death rates. Crime drops. Diseases drop. The country can (& of course will) get revenue from the now-legal drugs. Most importantly from my view, innocent victims of the 50+ year long, eternally failing, multi-trillion dollar "War on Drugs" like chronic pain patients will have a chance at a functional life & not be treated like criminals, but be treated like innocent citizens who have dire physical injuries, diseases, etc.
i heard you need at least a year.
YES! Only more than 90 days! Addicts should not be locked up in prison, but should be able to access free treatment/rehab.
This is an old lady who clearly doesn't give a fuck. You have to WANT to get well. She doesn't care and never will. It's just like in Requiem for a Dream: she has to keep taking meth to get away from the pain of being a prostitute, she needs to be a prostitute just to afford the meth. It's a neverending cycle.
What's worse.....omg......is that people ACTUALLY DO THIS SH!T! 🤢🤮 It's real life based on a true story
As a lab worker, we see some interesting stuff. No judgment, we honestly just want you ok and out of ER. ❤
Had a meth/heroin user on my floor(IMCU). He had his friend shoot up in his spine. Had a severe MRSA infection in the epidural space between L4 and L5. Left AMA because he wanted to get high. You can't make this stuff up.
A lot of SNF's refuse to take not only younger person, but if they have a PICC line and.history of drug use, it will be a no go as far as an admission. The few that I managed to get admitted to a SNF, usually didn't stay, left AMA with the PICC line in place, and we all can figure out why they wanted that PICC line left in.
@Church of POS We tried so hard to get him to stay, but ultimately had to get security involved. He did not leave with his PICC.
Whats an SNF?
Sometimes, it's best to leave Google alone ... I don't think I needed to know about this 😕
Oh god, it hit me right at 1:47. I didn't wanna be right.
So I have an ileostomy and after I got it, my partner was in my hospital room and I was high on painkillers. I forget exactly how it happened but we had this moment where it was like we were reading each others' mind and we were both thinking the same thing (sex in a stoma). We never said the words out loud but we both just looked at each other and knew and then we burst out laughing uncontrollably. No it wasn't something we were remotely considering doing, but it was a real bonding moment after a very stressful situation
Sounds like not only real love but a deep connection and friendship too. Laughin together in difficult times 💕
My husband and I both have ileostomies and that thought makes us both nauseated. That is Def an out hole, not an in hole 😂
@@summersalix haha for sure 😊
Sometimes you have to have a good, warped minded , wicked, giggle at the complexities of life to keep from going insane. Hope you’re both doing well. ❤
lmao, I would consider it (and probably reject it) if it were me / my partner, not gonna lie. i'm never gonna shame my partner for SUGGESTING something but i prob wouldn't do it
As a pediatrician we get teens that do the dumbest shit imaginable and act like it's no big deal. I can't believe the teens of my generation were ever that stupid
we were stupid in different ways, as were our parents before us.
I know an old timer, I worked at his and his wife's hotdog stand for a while, lost his arm when he tried to grab something before it fell into the path of a combine harvester. He did not, in fact, manage to save the item. Nor his right arm. Super lucky he was left handed. Told me "the smartest thing that happened that day was I decided to use my non dominant hand to grab the stupid thing, don't even remember was it was." Made a damn good hotdog tho.
They were... We are just hearing about it more now
We just didn’t all have cameras in are pockets.
Why are 21 year olds considered pediatric patients ?
Its heart breaking the I dignity that drug addiction beings to people live. With no help, just judgment and shame. Even though this is probably a fictional character but what real women with addiction go through I so much worse. Most people over 75% got addicted trusting their drs then they are left with horrible addiction no chemical induced detox. Just the stigma of welll why done u just stop... if ur a good person... take 1/2 of what u made with this vedio to help some one actually get help
It's scary...and rather disgusting how common this is! We've seen two cases of it at the ER I work at! 😬
I worked acute care hospitals for 25 years. As a Respiratory Therapist I was in ER constantly. Every time I thought I had seen it all, the next patient would prove me wrong. The stories are endless, and this little skit is really not far fetched. Especially the known repeat drug addict and what that drug addict is willing to do in order to obtain their next fix.
Can you share some interesting stories? Thanks
This is why I couldn’t do that type of work. People are nasty or self-inflict their own illnesses (obesity/hygiene) and won’t change. There’s fewer people that have actual problems
Ok. I’m a nurse and seriously I have never ever thought that a colostomy could be used as “another hole” 🤢🤢🤢 Obviously I am very naive 🤔🤔
I hate the fact I knew where the stoma issue was going 😅
I know there are super f'd up things that ER staff have to deal with but DAAAAYUM that is McShnasty !!!
🤢🤮🤢
I was a nurse for 15 years. I treated a man who came in on 400 mg of Adderall. He lived and was okay, I assume. But what he mostly needed medical help with was the withdrawal. It was so bad, he actually broke from reality and had to be under watch for days. I hope he's okay.
I'm very surprised he didn't have a massive coronary.
400mg. How did he not have an arrhythmia?
I don’t understand how someone can survive this and another person can die from 1 energy drink.
Its always a slow increase, tolerance build up over time. When they come to the hospital they are dependent on it by then.
I have 3 stomas including an ostomy... I can't even tell you how disturbing this is on multiple levels....
I had never heard of this, makes me feel sick! I have had 2 ileostomies but they were both reversed. I hope you are stable with your health my dear, bless you.
3 stomas, aw u are a strong warrior girl! I have an ileostomy and am inspired by your strength. 🤗 Wishing u the best of health as you heal!
3 stomas! You greedy girl, I have just the one. I sincerely hope you are coping ok and none of them give you too much trouble. xo
This is kinda amusing at first, but it feels really mean-spirited and judgmental by the end. I don't feel good after watching this. I mean, I know people who work in the ER are stressed with having to deal with all of the random, weird ailments they get handed to them on a daily basis and I really appreciate and respect all the work they do, but addicts are people too. Addiction is a legitimate illness
I had to google what a colostomy was
Dear god people are freaks
I worked in the urology dept at a military medical hospital. There was a gentleman there who had to have pretty extensive repair work on his rectum and colon so, of course, he had to have a colostomy bag. We later found out that he was letting his boyfriend use his stoma for s** because apparently the bf couldn't wait for the original damage to heal.
I have several very interesting stories from that time in my life.
🫢😵💫🫣😳🤢‼️
🤢🤢🤢🤢
Ugh....why would anyone be with a partner who destroys his body and that's not enough.....that's depraved!
Someone I once knew ex husband died in er less then a week after he was admitted because he was a heavy drug user and his organs failed.😢 she then thought it was OK to sleep with my husband and needless to say I'm divorced and far away from those types of people!!! Glory be to God!!! Say no to drugs guys.
I told my friend from Philly about that sidecar situation. I told her to look it up. I heard a faraway scream and laughter. We will never be the same!
Ah yes, those rabbit-holes. 😅 Same for porn. You start out at one place & a few more clicks you’re bizarrely curious & need to delete browser history.
Y does Ben sound like the John Wayne of the e.r. ?????
Music from some old Western started playing in my head when I read your comment. Maybe “The Good, The Bad and The Ugly”? Seems appropriate.
@@cherispencer3081 lmao ....BLONDIE......that's one of my favorite movies by the way next to lonesome dove n tombstone
I worked in medical claims during the 90s through 00's. There were interesting office visits & procedures on a regular basis. One stoma related encounter was a procedure to repair a psych Pt's stoma because they had been using it as a hidy hole for loose change.
😮
No... please no...
Well, what do YOU use your tummy pocket for?!
You’re a medical worker you’re suppose to help everyone regardless of who they are or what they do judging people like that is fuxked up
I had my hand all the way over my mouth waiting for whatever awful gross thing was gonna be wrong with the colostomy bag, and then burst out laughing when he knew a EUPHAMISM for it XD
She’s just like “whatever, I’m 72 and a meth addict and broke because of it, I don’t really care anymore really….”
As the doctors and nurses look at her in horror
My intrusive thoughts won… I looked it up… I think I’m ok w no sex just EVER again…… 😭
I really love your skits! I’ve watched all of them, and a lot of the shorts. I finally saw the ‘Dr. and his nice clothes lol. Nurses do the dirty work. And I know you play all characters, but Ben, Austin, and Rich look different. Keep making them! They take my mind of my depression.
Omg i love it!!!! I love your longer skits!!!! Keep em coming
on my way to look up "philadelphia sidecar" ... looked up the meaning and he wasn't lying def not gonna look up pics tho!
I'm grateful and relieved to have lost my interest in medicine by the time I got to High School.
I have so much respect, love and appreciation for nurses.
Y'all are amazing!
Thank you for everything you do
Yeah my friend worked with mentally ill patients at a hospital and told me one of her patients did this exact thing. I was speechless exactly like I am now. Definitely no appetite for dinner. Ty lol 😆.
