Well, that depends on what the nurse wants to do... A nurse like this gal can turn on a bright overhead light anytime!

I'm with ya, Alice! The NEXT-worst thing is being on a Greyhound bus when they stop in some one-horse town in the middle of the night and you have to get off so they can refuel and clean the bus...

where in the vampire in me hates the light turning the on it is the fear of unwanted pain that tolerates it since I would rather they see what they are trying to do then trying to fumble around in the dark.  |

Nurses need to do it in the dark
LOL,,, Oh Mike you’re getting into trouble.   However I’d just as soon the nurse comes in the room at night and leaves the lights off!  |

Having to pay for “cable or satellite” service that you subscribed to in the first place
and then having to listen to their commercials while watching the tv !  Plus the volume is always always annoying! |

Not only turning on lights, but talking loud, walking right up to you when asleep and taking your temp. or blood pressure. I have always found it strange how you never get any rest in a hospital.
