The wait at Duke University Hospital was horrendous it took another thirty minutes until I got a wheelchair. I was already having a baby and these people are playing with my life.

" Tyrone go get the doctor right now this baby is coming" I tell him.

"I'm going, I'm going to see what's taking so long". he says.

"Hurry, I wonder what's going on to make them not focus on their pregnant patients. 

" I don't know why but I'm going to ask for sure" he says as he is leaving.

Tyrone (POV) 

As I go up to the reception table again. I am trying to get one of the nurses attention. 

"Hello... excuse me ma'am" I try to call one of the nurses.

"Yes sir, can I help you" she answers. Finally one of them answers me.

" My pregnant wife is about to go into labor and no one has helped us since we have arrived here, we are in room B178" I tell her. 

"Oh I'm sorry I'll get a nurse and head of PED's" she tells me.

"Please get them quickly we have been waiting for an hour" I tell her.

" I will get them as fast as possible" she responds.

As I am going back to the room I see other patients being treated before us and we were here before them.
