 show for a Brit and babysitter me I have many titles We're on the way to my endoscopy should be interesting Still don't want to go looking forward to seeing you stoned Procedure is done at St. Anne Hospital. I keep forgetting that St. Anne even has a hospital but we're going to St. Anne Hospital and and You're gonna sedate me a little bit and Put a camera down into my stomach to see if we can figure out what's going on in there. I think I'm fine They want to check and make sure This sort of came from off the last couple of years it comes and goes there's like a Weird lump feeling in my back around where my right kidney would be but apparently my kidneys are fine Everything looks fine in there. They can't figure out what might be causing it and to be on the safe side We're gonna go and make sure it's nothing that I should be worried about Talk to people and say you feel like you have a lump people start getting nervous Yeah, I don't think it's I don't think it's I think it's I think it's muscles. That's what I think they are I think my muscles get tightened and I don't stretch properly all the time And I don't see a chiropractor enough and a massage therapist. Maybe it would help I think that's what it is. But you know, we got to make sure it's not the big one Very lucky to live in Canada because guess what we leave the hospital every time without a bill Yeah, we can go as many times as we want. We can go every single day I would not encourage that unless something's Don't be a hypochondriac, but it's great As it's flaws, but I just can't imagine like we have You know, we know several people in the US and they talk to us sometimes about medical bills and stuff And it's just such a foreign concept. It really is. I forget that it even exists and they're huge bills like huge I just don't understand how that's even an issue as a Canadian. I don't see how that could be a partisan thing or that how that could be Because we're all gonna be there. We're all gonna get old. It's not Just some of us. It's all of us And I love everybody's argument. You should see the taxes they pay Yeah, you do realize that that doesn't all go towards health care, right? Yeah, our taxes aren't that bad. Well, they're high. They're high Yeah, we could lower them in some places. That's we're working on that but we have peace of mind But i'm okay paying a little bit more to make sure that when I get old i'm taking care of Get older develop a health problem when you're young Yeah, or deliver a baby Yeah, we're gonna walk out of there without a bill. Yeah, you don't get a bill for delivering babies in Canada. That's ridiculous What in the world who would charge someone for having a baby bringing a new life into this world? I just gave you another future taxpayer, but you're gonna give me a bill. What? Yeah, we don't understand that but uh, I've never been to this hospital what it looks like It looks like a tiny little building It doesn't look like a hospital at all. It's more like a medical clinic. It looks like an old folks home Or pardon me a senior's complex. Is that what they're called now? I don't know When I was growing up they were called old folks home. Sorry. That's politically incorrect I don't think anyone cares about that one Are you sure? Oh someone will be offended So this is it medical center They call it a hospital. Yeah, st. Anne hospital This is where it happens Staff parking over there Yeah, I guess so Oh, I think the handy kids sign just up there Okay, all right. All right. This is different I parked on the street when I came or my sister parked on the street when she brought me here for a medical procedure Well, you're pregnant. You can park where you want Is that how that works? We get to park in the special spots at superstore in walmart now pink spots the pink spots for that barbecuing man spots Yeah I don't like parking up that close anyway because people always ding your doors then but it's nice to have the option She's feeling really tired or something. We can just go park right in the front in a special spot Uh, you know what? It's not so much if I'm tired if it's icy out. I prefer a closer spot. Yeah, that's true I Winter scares me a little bit being pregnant But I'm just extra careful. I I take tiny little itty bitty old lady steps Oh Well I'll talk to you guys in a little bit. I'm gonna hand the camera to brit and see what she uh, see if she captures It'll be some stimulating entertainment ladies and gentlemen from this point on I am not responsible for anything that I say or do That's right. She's my she's my husband's hitter That's right Well, I just got the uh The message I'm doneer. I think it meant I'm done He's a little loopy right now Uh, yeah, so anyways josh's procedure is done. I don't know how long he'll have to stay there In recovery, but uh, yeah I ran to town Ran some errands got dog food got filled up a gas While he was in there It was a very short procedure. It was like I think it was like 20 minutes from the last time he messaged me till he messaged me that he was done So that's really good Oh, he's messaging some more. Let's see what strange things he's saying to me I yealin getib their camera ready Um something about getting the camera ready. Well, we're ready for him Took way too long to type that. Oh, that was all in English and proper grammar Excellent, okay Poor guy. I don't think josh has ever been under sedation of any kind or had an iv put in Um, he was sweating bullets apparently while they were putting in the iv Poor guy. I understand. I had my first ever procedure No wisdom teeth My third procedure was at this hospital and it was the most invasive I had ever had and I was I was pretty nervous. I don't think there's ever going to be a procedure that I would be not nervous for So I get it. I'm not really making fun of them. I get it. It's It's unnerving knowing that you're going to be sedated and vulnerable And something could go wrong with any kind of procedure. So But hopefully he'll be okay I'll let him sleep for the afternoon while I go to a dentist appointment and then um I'll wake him up because we're going to go see baby My 20 week ultrasound isn't quite complete. So at 21 weeks here We're going for the second part because baby stubborn curled up into a pretzel So we couldn't see his or her spine So round two of pictures Let's go get josh soon battle scars It went great more great actually the worst part for me was When after they put in the IV not during it, but it burnt a lot for some reason when they put the IV in And uh after the nurse left the little area that I was in I started started to sweat And then it got super nauseous for like two minutes I thought I was gonna throw up, but they have nothing in my stomach to throw up And then suddenly just like that My switch was turned off and I was fine. It just took a little while because they're running a little bit behind They said that they're catching up from all the endoscopies that were delayed due to covid So this is all this doctor was doing all day. He's doing eight to ten I think per day I feel fine now. It's been Half an hour a little loopy when I first woke up. I tried messaging her I wrote it out like 15 times. I couldn't write the sentence proper And the one I read to you guys he just thought nailed it Yeah What did I say? Where's my phone? Get a little getter I was saying that I'm done Get the camera ready because I was feeling just Whoo I thought it'd be really great footage because I thought it would last a while It didn't last very long by the time she came into the room like 10 minutes later. I was pretty much all It pretty much all worn off already and now I just feel slow But um, I'll slow to begin with so I'm like you had a couple too many beers the night before and you're just like yeah Yeah, almost like a hangover, but no pain. I don't have a headache or anything. It's just just the fuzziness It's just calm and chill home and watch tv and I'm not supposed to eat bad foods, but I don't know. We got some McDonald's I think you deserve a treat, but we got to make sure that You don't go to sleep for at least two hours after So the message I sent her Uh, I geel and get build Camera ready lol And I read that over like 15 times like over and over like yep, that's the one and I hit send Like that's I said took way too long to type that and then that was me But Didn't last long so uh, sorry guys. I thought that uh, I'll be a little more entertaining after that, but uh I was gonna open you with me too I I got some entertainment in the room while he was getting dressed. I got to watch him rip off the stickers the hard monitor stickers Okay, I got I could show you because I got a lot of chest here all of a sudden here's one there used to be hair there Not no more Add blood a little bit Can't imagine guys who wax their chests. It's definitely a 40 year old virgin moment. Yeah Too bad we were in hospital or else you could have screamed oh kelly Clarkson if I would have thought of it I totally would have that would have been hilarious That was pretty entertaining. Yeah, you've gotten really hairy but only since you started balding Yeah, I'm losing hair on my head. I need to cut my hair. You can see I'm losing hair on top of my head It's all moved down to my chest ever since that is just migrating. Yeah, I used to have just a little little puff of chest hair and then Well There's around the time when I started flat bedding. I'll grow hair on your chest I'm gonna head home to the dogs now grab some food and uh But we actually have a couple more appointments today and we have she has a dentist appointment I'm gonna hang out at home. I think and then she has uh Ultrasound and the way I'm feeling now. I think it'll be just fine for me to tag along and uh, they're gonna do a little uh The baby spine and then a little tour of the baby Yes, they couldn't get the picture of the spine last time So I gotta be home for this time and see the baby moving around and stuff Baby doesn't like mcdonald's I do but baby doesn't so Wendy's the one fast food restaurant that a burger restaurant that the baby likes My goodie pig all's a good boy You done did good you listen to your wife so You're in a treat and everyone including all of you in the comment section was right It's nothing to worry about don't even remember it I remember being rolled into the procedure room They put those uh like things in my nose Nose yeah, they smelled like rubber. We made a joke about it that I'll get used to it right away And then lights were out the next time I opened my eyes. I was back in the recovery room there I don't even have a source roll nothing It's it's fine I didn't die So that's good news good news. There'll be another vlog tomorrow I won't be able to go back to work till tomorrow afternoon at the earliest So, uh, I'll let dispatch know and see if they got something from sure they'll find something I might run out to kanora tonight and pick up in the morning But that's just one option and see what they have for me Since american Thanksgiving is on thursday We can't deliver anywhere in the u.s. On thursday, so I might just be staying in canada this week I was really hoping that that would be a lot more entertaining for you guys Because when brit got sedated for her egg retrieval during the IVF process I think they gave her a little bit of a different cocktail Probably a little bit more intense because it's more of an invasive procedure obviously than mine but uh It was such a strange experience. There's like a half hour of my life. That's just gone So they got me already. They got the IV hooked in I still got a little scar there I don't know if they did it a little rough or wrong, but uh, yeah, it burnt like I was saying it burnt going in and then I got real sweaty For some reason I started sweating like crazy. I got super nauseous. I thought I was gonna throw up I started dry heaving a little bit And then like two minutes later perfectly fine So I don't know what that was all about But that was the worst part of it And then uh, they got me ready. They got the IV drip going And then they wheeled me into the procedure room, right? And it's kind of crazy because you know, you're in this room all just with the doctor or the whatever the The he's not a surgeon. Is he a surgeon? But With the doctor and two nurses and you know, you're like the center of attention They're like this big massive room and you're right in the middle and all these machines all over you everywhere It's kind of intimidating but whatever Uh, that part didn't freak me out And they put that that, uh Nose thing in you know, the thing that goes in your nose blows oxygen into your nose And the last thing I remember is they they put this thing on And then they told me they're gonna give me something to bite on So that my mouth stays open While they put the tube down, I don't remember that at all putting putting it in my mouth I just remember them telling me that and then they put that nose thing On me and then I remember saying oh, it smells like rubber And they said yeah, I sort of chuckled a little bit and then I was out No idea No, I don't even remember closing my eyes. I don't even know if my eyes were closed Was I like staring blindly at the sea? I don't know what happened No idea After I said that it smells like rubber I can remember them sort of laughing about it and then I opened my eyes and I was in the recovery room And the nurse was there. Uh, she took out my IV Uh and uh And then suddenly brit was there. Oh, yeah, I sent brit a message. That's right. I woke up and first thing I did was I grabbed my phone I tried to message her because I was super loopy when I first woke up I said this is gonna be great footage, right? So I was trying to tell her bring the camera bring your camera. This is gonna be awesome Bring the camera. I couldn't type it out and then I read I explained Explained it to you already. I read the sentence over and I'm like, yep That makes sense sent it And then I guess she started coming in and by the time they led her into the recovery room with me Uh, I was totally recovered already. I was pretty much like 90 percent just a little bit slow So and we can't film in there either. They have big signs all over the place. No cameras. No filming. So that's sort of that sort of uh messed up my My footage that I was hoping to get of myself all loopy I thought that for sure like that she came into the recovery room because sedation affects people differently and some people It affects a lot more afterwards And sometimes you got to get led back to the car. So you don't get lost or something I thought that's how I was going to be. I was kind of hoping that that's how I was going to be because We were going to get back to the car And it was going to make a great vlog No, apparently my body handles sedation very well And uh, yeah by the time we got to the car I was Almost perfectly normal So a little fuzzy that was kind of disappointing, but I guess good at the same time Yeah, that was my story It was uh It was very interesting my first time ever being sedated like that huh So as you could tell, uh, I wasn't allowed to drive for uh 24 hours after that So I was in the passenger seat, but I did tag along to the ultrasound later on that day that Afternoon and we got to see baby. We got to see him or her and moving around there kicking up a storm like crazy and uh Getting bigger and bigger I'm so excited Oh, yeah, that's another thing because when she first got into the room I guess I was a little bit out of it still but She wasn't allowed to film and uh, I was so happy as soon as I saw her walk around the corner and into my little area My recovery area there. I was all excited and I announced to the whole ward That's my wife and I point that or something. That's my baby So everybody knew that that was my wife and that was my baby. Yeah, I'm like she's pregnant Ah Wish we could have gotten that on film at least but whatever rules or rules. Sorry. Sorry guys Uh, didn't turn out the way I wanted it to but that's I guess that's life At least we can go home without a bill, right? I wonder how much an endoscopy would cost For my friends down south. I'm always very fascinated by The way your healthcare works And we don't mean to criticize it at all like at the beginning of the vlog We're sort of like we're honestly confused and honestly blowing away like I don't understand Why it's like and why I don't understand why it's an issue people fight over and why it's an issue like the part like political Why is it political? We're all human We're all gonna get old so I don't understand that but don't take it as a criticism like that's your system That's the way you guys have it Uh, I would like to understand a little bit though because I hadn't in dusk be done They called it a gas gastropy. It's drop-a-pee. It's gastropy. I'm not a doctor. I'm a trucker Anyways, how much would that have cost in the u.s? Say, uh, you don't have any health insurance. Okay, I know that you guys have health insurance through your work A lot of it and some things are covered and some things aren't I'd say you're not insured for an endoscopy How much would that cost let me know down below in the comment section if you actually know Uh, if you're just guessing like just let me know you're guessing But if you actually know the answer, I'd like to have some honest answers. Maybe someone's in the medical field down there Uh, what would my bill have been when I went home without insurance? Because my bill was exactly zero and I know we all got to pay for it through our taxes I I know that but like I said earlier too, I'm okay paying it a little more because I'm gonna get old one day I'm a pretty healthy guy. I don't really have any big health issues right now But I'm getting older and one day Every single one of us is gonna get old and we're gonna develop problems and we're gonna need a doctor We're gonna need a hospital. We're gonna need treatment for one thing or another So I don't I feel It's a very patriotic thing like it's a it's it's the one thing that all canadians can agree on It doesn't matter if you're a conservative If you're a new democrat if you're a liberal if you're a people's party person If you're a kebac block kebecois person, whatever party you belong to There's one thing we all agree on is that We all want to take care of each other's health together I'll chip in a little bit. You'll chip in a little bit and hey when I get old I'll be taking care of right It doesn't cover everything. It's not it's definitely not perfect. There's there's a lot of flaws to it Like there is no perfect system out there, but I'm thankful for it. I am thankful for what we have We need more doctors. We need more nurses And we need constant improvements Everybody's got a little bit of a different idea of How to make it better that's that's sort of like the one thing because in you know, us you have two main parties right democrat republican in canada you have like Five I think you have the liberal party, which is in power right now Not not my party, but they're in power right now with minority government. They're in a coalition with the new democrats And then there's the conservative party And then there's there's the people's party So from left to right if you guys are political from left to right ndp liberal Conservative people's party and then block kebek was in there for some reason They're a separatist party that want to break apart the country and then the entire point of their existence is to break kebek off from canada That's a whole different story for a different day and a different channel I'm not a political channel So I'm just trying to explain to my american friends how it sort of works because there's a bunch of parties, right? They all agree on health care. No one's ever gonna touch that they all agree on that But they all do have their different ideas of how to make health care better In their in their view, right? It's one thing we can all come it's a very patriotic thing. It's one thing we can all come together on We're all gonna get sick one day and we're all gonna be there for each other Thanks for watching today listening to me rant You guys are all awesome and I'll see you in my next video
