Hi. I'm a critical care nurse and often when my patients wake up after being sedated they state they remember conversations, feelings, dreams etc. These often match up somewhat with reality. Do you remember any conversations or anything such as the delirium? Also was there ever a point that you remember being intubated? If so what did it feel like? What was something that could have improved your care from a nursing perspective? Thank you so much :) so glad to see you are doing better and that rainbow blanket looks FABULOUS!!!!

I am an RN. I was wondering if you have noted any common "regrets" that people seem to have at the end. Also, I use "touch" a lot in my care. Have you seen positive effects from touch, even in an unconscious patient? Hand holding, stroking of the forehead etc.
