Being hospitalized is not like going to the spa for a weekend of rejuvenation and relaxation. You are there because you need the expertise of the medical staff to help you become healthy again. You are probably upset by what is going on in your body, so you don't need the frustration of not being able to understand what is being said about you and to you. Most people don't realize how confusing Hospital Lingo can be for the outsider. For this reason, the author offers this guide with light and laughter as a primer for patients and for visitors. Perhaps it will encourage you to relax a bit and let the professionals do their best work. Understand the lingo as you step into the hospital, which is an entirely unfamiliar world to most of us.
