Well, here it is, another Christmas Day in Florida, when Lorraine ("The Prairie Princess") must leave the alpacas, chickens, donkeys and most of all, her severely disabled son, Joey, in order to run the hospital laboratory in Wachula. Not only will she have to get up by 5 a.m. and be to work no later than 6 a.m., but she has been told that no one else will show up during her time and that her supervisors are not coming in nor is her relief. Soooo, she must work through until 11 p.m., in case you need surgery and a doctor in the ER needs blood analysis of patients quickly, good luck to you or to your injured or ill loved one(s). Lorraine's own son is supposed to have a home health care CNA each day while she works to help clean him and do things like Range of Motion to help his arms and legs be able to move, and to move him from bed to wheel chair, clean his waste materials, and feed him through a stomach tube---but, on holidays, the nursing agencies won't pay the help, so the CNA will not show up.
