Awhile back at work me and a friend decided to write down what other nurses were saying on the phone.... One sided conversations can get quite interesting.....
One specific conversation i remember went somethings like this.... "How may i help you? Oh gosh it hurt that bad? When he takes it out or puts it in? Both? Have you tried using saline to moisten it? Try taking pain meds prior because it has to be done. Change your position and try relaxing. You have to trust him. Is he not gentle? Ask him to pack it in a different way, from a different angle. Good luck and please you have to do this everyday, promise me. Call us back if you won't let him and we will send someone out to do it for him." We laughed and laughed. It was overheard from a nurse on the phone with a patient regarding a dressing change her husband was doing daily. But, omg we nurses enjoy a good laugh at work too.
