Being told to “find someone” to give you an I.V is the stupidest thing I have heard for awhile. I’m glad you sorted it out. I think I would have cried. I know complaints are exhausting but I think it’s warranted. I’m glad you’re enjoying life despite the medical stuff

[@jillr759]

Never in my 30 years of nursing “go find someone” I would have lost it.

[@SherryBaby2003]

That’s very unprofessional

[@jeanneprieto5219]

So much for patient advocacy. The US may be FAR from perfect, but I doubt someone would tell you to roam the halls to find yourself someone to start your IV 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@jillr759]

@Asspats and superchats yes! We are so micromanaged I would be fired right on the spot.

[@carolcarol3938]

Don't they have a PA (public address) system, to call someone to the area for you??? Sounds crazy

[@soggymoggytravels]

I’m sorry to see yet another hospital mess up for you, but I think you handled it very admirably, and thank goodness the person seemed to do a good job at putting the IV needle in. I wish you get the best possible results and that you remain healthy for many years to come. Hugs and best wishes.

[@theoriginalpandanon]

That is absolutely absurd that they would tell YOU to find someone to do the iv! What kind of hospital is that?!?!?!?

[@lisam6193]

Outrageous! I would be furious.

[@Bombabingbong66]

I could not agree more. That person should be reported to the Director.

[@Olympicspirit]

Never expected this from a European hospital, shocked.

[@carlajohnson7361]

No wonder Radiology wondered what you were doing walking around looking for someone to place an IV. This should be brought to someone’s attention. Unexceptable.

[@eneal]

Yes this is ridiculous!

[@kristineclark43]

Romee you are looking so healthy and just beautiful inside and out. I can't get over how cute your hair looks. I think iam happiest when you put a video out. Always makes my day to see your smiling face. It sucks that the Hospital makes so many mistakes no one should be sick and then subject to error after error. Makes me pissed off on your behalf but you always handle it in such a positive way. Makes me want to do better in my life. Iam hoping and praying that you get a good result. I have 3 children a 32yr old daughter, 30yr old son and 28yr old daughter. I feel such a soft spot for you because I can't imagine one of them going through this and it breaks my heart to see you so young and full of life going through this. Iam always sending positive prayers and vibes your way and I just believe you will beat this. All the best ❤️ Kris 🙏🙏🙏🙏🍻🇨🇦

[@amberfoster8089]

I'm not from your country but a year ago my brother in law was waiting on a double lung transplant. He was in hospital waiting on tests, one was a scan on his lungs, he was told someone would come for him at 5pm, they didn't so he kept waiting. At nine a doctor came into his room shouting at him that he should have made his own way, found an elevator and went to the area. He could hardly walk 10 steps to the toilet 😢😢 sending you love ❤️❤️

[@Truth1561]

My daughter was finally diagnosed with MS during the first year if covid after I literally took her into A/E and refused to leave until they scanned her ( she had literally gone blind). Its been one mess up after another for over two years- what can go wrong, no apology. When you are ill you shouldn't have to self_advocate, but that's the world now it seems.

[@glcmranger421]

You have to keep in mind they are employees with smart phones and tick-tock/IM/YT accounts of their own. They lead busy lives vlogging, too! We can’t expect them to ask, “How high?” when we say, “Jump!” 😂 I’m constantly fighting with the VA since 1992 just needing to get treated like a patient with legitimate medical issues. I digress…

[@violetmartha916]

Gosh I'm so sorry that your poor daughter and you had to go through that! How is she doing now? Sending much love. 💕💕💕

[@KaitCervi]

I had a very similar experience also with an MS diagnosis during covid. I saw 7 doctors in 6 days because I was not going to give up figuring it out. I couldn't walk unassisted because of the way my vision was impacted and how badly my cerebellum was attacked. I'm a medical student and Kinesiologist so I'm coming up with some pretty cool ways to manage many of the symptoms, send me a DM on Instagram if you/ your daughter would like to connect.

[@yougotaluvme]

Sorry to here that, hope she's doing well. i will keep you guys in my nprayers

[@andreyuuuuu]

It’s funny/weird how people start following and viewing your videos in considerable amount after you got ill of cancer, from tens of K to hundreds of K of views…

[@lynnwoodcock2033]

Hello precious Jeffrey!!! How great to see you even though I’m 3 weeks behind watching this video . Sorry Romee I’m not watching these in order but I’m just happy to see them when I can find them. Love to always see your beautiful smile whenever I can👍🥰😁💁‍♀️

[@jacquehoosier6597]

I'm also still stuck on the fact that the person at the front desk would tell you to go find someone in the hall way of the hospital and ask them!?! That's ridiculous

[@IstvanNudge]

Patients always have the right to stand up for themselves. You’re a person not a lab rat.

[@believingtoday]

You have such wonderful friends! That is a blessing beyond measure. I wish you the best news with the scan results.

[@maggiej6717]

Love your videos! I am fighting cancer, too. It has been a journey, but I’m doing well. You encourage me.

[@KB-xd5wq]

I've never heard of finding your own IV nurse. I thought government healthcare was supposed to be so good. But I hated getting CT PET scans....and the wait for results was brutal. Good luck!

[@cristinaaristizabal9882]

It is very good. But of curse is not 100% perfect. Some times they mess up.

[@eileenlester4342]

I'm glad that you took someone with you this time! 💜

[@thedevilsplayground4851]

Don't think you have anything to worry about as far as your scans go. You are looking really well and healthy Romee.

[@KoloheSF]

Romee, You handle all of the BS with the hospital with grace, perseverance, and brains and I have a good feeling about this scan. You look amazing in the red dress 💃and your hair looks great pulled back. So glad you got a nice dinner gifted to you and had fun with your friend. You deserve it! 😻🥰

[@alexiarose7356]

Your so lucky to have so many good friends.Greetings from Greece!

[@maddieadams75]

Prayers for a great outcome with your pet scan. 🙏♥️

[@lzal9204]

Wth I can’t believe they would tell you to find someone to start an IV! That’s insane.

[@drgnflylover0774]

Awe...praying Romee. You are Loved💖 God Bless your journey.

[@positivevibes6541]

Hope all is well. Thougths and Prayers for U No retreat, no surrender👍💪

[@anekamckenzie9504]

Oh boy last thing you needed in that situation was additional stress of the hospital making that mistake. At least you had good end to your day going to dinner with your friend. There's nothing like having a good support system which you fortunately have. Reminds me that we can all chip in sometimes to help someone who's feeling down or having a hard time by doing even simple things like listening to them over a bowl of ice cream

[@Corvette1658]

I’m so proud of you because i had lost people to cancer. And last week my girlfriend lost her fight to cancer. I know if she was still here she would love watching you. And I know you are a big fighter and you got this.

[@ari9313]

I'm so sorry. I'm here for you 💕💕

[@cherrymetha3185]

Heartfelt condolences for your loss ❤️ .

[@Gemelli2906]

🫤sorry for what you are going through. 😘sending prayers for good results.

[@KailaStrong]

Days are made better when Romee drops a vid! Yes!!

[@KACDWFCD]

Amen to that🤟🏼

[@Midnight-rj4ed]

Cheers

[@Herzeleid1985]

Yes! Couldn’t wait until I got off of work to watch.

[@cynthiadavid5282]

U look great romee u have been thru so so much u have made it thru college u have done travelling i cant believe how amazing u look romee u rock

[@Outdoorlass]

When wearing the black dress, the black heels looked fabulous. The white stuck out too much in my opinion. As far as your appointments, maybe calling the day before to confirm that you have appointments so it’s fixed before you get there. You look great by the way!

[@420asia]

I'm praying 🙏 always for you Romee...I'm sure your pet scan results are going to be all clear. I started watching you when your cancer journey just started. Love all your adventures 💕

[@ceciliagonzalez6362]

Team Rohme! Onward and upward !! NO TURNING BACK!! Love from Seattle!

[@teresahuckabee6879]

The red dress is beautiful an better choice for Indian resturant since they are bright colorful people.

[@lizzynunez4906]

WOW the fact that you had to go in search of someone for the IV is unacceptable, specially a person with a major illness who has been waiting 2 months for a crucial test. I understand that your stress level must be at an all-time high (thank God you had Jeffrey with you) but the hospital needs to know their mistake is unacceptable, I can only imagine how many other people have had to go through the same thing as you.💔

[@supersparkley123]

Your curly hair sooo cute and your friend is too! 👩🏻‍🦱👀❤️🙏🏻 Prayers for good results!!!

[@glitter1076]

The care you have received from start to finish has been terrible, even worse than in the UK and that is saying something. I can't believe they made you find someone to put your iv in. That is just awful. You are so strong and have dealt with this illness so well. So happy your cancer free 😁

[@coffofcuppe]

Hi Romee, I love to see you smile and laugh with friends. Fingers crossed. ❤❤

[@cat-annechats5362]

Yes, we either need to advocate for ourselves or a loved one! Sheesh! I'm glad you have a nice friend with you~ The Indian restaurant food looked delicious. Praying the scan turns out negative!

[@liftedbodhisattva]

💜🦋 How i miss Amsterdam. ✈ What a great way to end scanxiety .

[@monicazehm4333]

Honey you've had some inappropriate situations when you've gone in for tests, etc. You're a strong, beautiful woman who is above all that. I hope it's smooth sailing for you now and that you have a good report! You've been through so much and enough is enough. God bless you!

[@sunsetwalks488]

Prayers for you dearest Romee ❤

[@bibit3856]

I’m amazed by the resilience of your body. You look great!

[@vickilopez1176]

I love how you stand up for yourself 🦦you are not only strong an awesome women but beautiful all the time 🦋

[@Olympicspirit]

Romee you look very beautiful and healthy, praying for you🙏

[@blancawingert1519]

Praying for you beautiful Romee.Have a wonderful Sunday gorgeous .❤️♥️❤️

[@feliciajacobsson6001]

That pen under your shoe made me cry from laughing so hard 😂

[@monicayanez4481]

Prayers are with you Romee ..God is with you ..you will be fine !!!🙏

[@sandella11]

OMG...wtf? Yes...always advocate for yourself. You are the most adorable, sweetest girl! Your smile lights up this world...wherever you are, I bet. I’m 74 yrs old and the unpredictabilities of life have almost caused me to give up....but I’m still here. From the time I was a little child...nothing has turned out the way I thought it would. Long story....it continues to not go the way I plan...but I’ve adapted and changed and evolved as I have no other choice. Not giving up yet. You always appear so ‘put together’ and calm and organized. You’ve been thru enough...you need some contentment and gratitude...and yet....you always seem to portray those traits. You’re a survivor..keep smiling..you have a gorgeous smile. Sending much light and love and healing energy out to you....from Jersey, USA. 🙏🏻💫💖💖💖💖💖. You got this. 👍

[@lynnwoodcock2033]

You two are adorable coming out of the Indian restaurant!!! Love both of your outfits!!!👍💁‍♀️❣️

[@marieoldlace]

Hi Romee, I am also being treated for cancer I have invasive ductal carsinoma (breast cancer) the hospital I have my treatment at made a huge mistake a couple of days ago, I was scheduled for a bone marrow biopsy but was having a hard time finding out why but I trusted my oncologist, while I was on my way to the hospital the doctors office called and said I didn't need to have it done that it was a mistake omg I was angry and scared about such a big mistake. I know the mistakes are stressful and I am glad you have such a good attitude and handled it so well 🙂

[@kimpeasester]

I PICK THE BLACK SANDALS

[@laurenloveslv655]

You looked gorgeous in your black summer dress, and the white shoes were spot on. Although your friends' red dress was very cute too. Your hair is very chic in the clip. How nice to get offered a free meal out, you deserve it.

[@angel_existential]

Girl, the health care you are getting/have gotten makes me so angry! It's not just Canada and the states, health care is bad everywhere. I am hoping the best for you. You deserve a hell of a lot better.

[@debbiesemeijn]

Heel veel succes met de uitslag van de pets can. Wat vreselijk spannend voor je!! Ik duim voor je.🤞🏻🍀 grt Debbie

[@suzieq2268]

I wish that I had the support from friends and family like you do. I loved taking care of my parents, and I would do it all again in a heartbeat. Trouble is, that my husband and children don't have the same level of commitment for me. They're clueless when it comes to helping advocate for my health. I am hopeful that things are fixable, but I am exhausted trying to advocate for myself. Advocating is not for everyone, and if God calls me home, maybe I can still watch over my family from above❤

[@melindataljaard2753]

Hi Romee good to see you again. Glad your happy and that the hospital visit went well after all the problems. Your hair looks very long and nice. Take care. Greetings from Melinda from South-Africa 🙋🏻‍♀️🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻

[@ari9313]

I'm here for you 💕💕

[@vdeniceeckert3494]

Six years on this journey of cancer I had no idea. Prayers

[@nancyshookedoncrochet526]

I had problems with the IV when I was in the hospital several years ago. Hope your test yields great results.

[@malekg8170]

I love you Romee you're not the only one fighting this #fromtunisia

[@dianne1214]

Praying for a clear pet scan so you don’t have to go through treatment again. I can’t believe they made you go find someone to put your iv in. That’s crazy. Glad you found someone and were able to proceed.

[@RaesTurquoiseTurtle]

You do look cute in red glad you enjoyed and had fun! Sorry the Pet scan was a mess again. Hoping you get the very best results. 💜

[@nathalieguerin7808]

Well I'm glad you got your IV and got to eat amazing indian food. :) Can't wait to hear about the results.

[@jedikaren8112]

Man and I thought the US hospitals were bad. You are going through a nightmare with the system.

[@annemariegracie6343]

love the video romee, that's shocking they mess up again hope your ct scan goes back well and you get good results back hope you both enjoyed your dinner it looked nice your dress and your friend playsuit looked lovely on. x ❤️

[@shawntanac3172]

I know what you mean about This is Us ! I so sad it’s over !!! Hoping for good results Romee ♥️

[@pippakay7234]

I can't believe they told you to go and find someone to sort things out for you, when they should be sorting that out not you. I do hope your results are a yeah 100% cancer free. Love the red dress on you and yes i was thinking I'm sure she was wearing a different colour when she got ready to go. 💛🧡💙

[@jennyvdwesthuizen2478]

You are looking beautiful 🙂🙏🏻prayers that all will be well.

[@megankerr297]

I am glad to hear you actually got the PET scan. So sorry to hear that you had to find someone to put in your IV. Not only was it their mistake that they didn’t book it but to ask you to find someone to do it is crazy to me.

Sorry for you having to go through more screwups at the hospital ...but it was great to see you enjoying dinner...and life...with a friend 😘

[@carolynhamilton3316]

Uggh! Hospital screw ups. I was getting a pre op for a surgery. I had a cat scan then they came for me again for another cat scan. I questioned it. They had the wrong patient and I was already lying down on the Cat scan table. So frustrating! I pray all will be well!!!. Your hair at that length and curl is adorable!!

[@Toffee146]

I always ring ahead. There are always problems that can crop up, though. 😥 I'm so sorry you were messed about. You're beautiful, Romee. I really hope your scan and test results come back with a good result. You've been through so much, and deserve some fun, and to be happy. ❤️💜❤️💜 Love sent from Sheffield, England. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@fred6059]

So glad I escaped there. The health care was atrocious. Good luck on your journey.

[@gaylelazarus2394]

Oh Rome I can’t believe they screwed up your testing for placing your iv then told YOU to go find somebody!!! Who does that ughh. Well I’m glad you found somebody. Praying all is positive for you. You looked sooo pretty in both those dresses. Can’t believe you stepped on a pen before you left lol. I love how your hair is growing back. Your such a beautiful person and I wish only the best for you. Stay positive 💐

[@kimdrury6184]

Prayers that your PET scan is all clear!!! I wondered why I saw the red dress lol. You look so good and happy!!!

[@timlittle1286]

I just had a Pet scan today after being unable to get it 3 years ago for smouldering myeloma. Hopefully it is good news. I want to live while I'm alive.

[@sawdust2556]

It’s really terrible how these tests are getting screwed up bc you have enough to deal with. Being stressed out beyond belief before hand and having to beg them to do what you were scheduled for and told you had to get done is beyond upsetting.👍🏼🙏🏼

[@Timsgal777]

Good on you for making them correct their mistake. Go girl.

[@dawncrumpton5383]

Dinner looked amazing!!! Prayers for good scan results!

[@sapphireice1409]
