I have recently been a patient at Good Shepherd Hospital. I have been having a problem with vomiting so they had put a tube up my nose to my stomach to drain it out. My doctor had said he was going to take it out in the morning, it is very uncomfortable. I had it in two days prior also. That morning in particular was not a very good morning. I told Anita I couldn't take it anymore and was going to rip out the tube. I did so during an anxiety attack, which I have never had before. She never was cruel, nasty or lost her composure with me and continued to provide excellent care to me for my continued stay.
