At a hospital again. I woke up to stinky meat next to me. They told me they don't have vegan food. They're very ostensibly rude about this. Had to listen to a long tirade from the room"mate" about how carnism is natural.

I'm in a lot of pain which makes me really irritable. I really didn't need to be made to gag with the meat.

Last time I was in a hospital they would throw meat into my food as well making sure it touched everything so I wasn't able to eat the veggies without the corpse taste.

I don't get why people are so malicious about it. I'm trying not to cry not to give them satisfaction. I am vegan for moral reasons. This is extremely uncomfortable.

You literally said you were irritable. Now you're abusing people here too? I don't see anything that warrants being called a dickwad based on the info you provided.

And honestly, first impressions based on your responses isn't great... In fact, you sound like the kind of person who is abusive normally.

I'd suggest maybe try treating the staff there with respect, and perhaps they'll do the same

Especially because they the nurse staff doesn't have direct control over what food is available.
