Thanks. I thought is was odd. Ie the nurse asking me what color is your ankle? How is suwollen is it? Are there any obvious deformities like bones sticking out? And of course , always my favorite on a scale of one to ten with ten being the worst pain you have ever experienced, how badly does it hurt? It reminded me of the time my neighbor who now has macular degeneration was having me describe a mushroom to him as he knows which mushrooms are deadly and which are edible. What color is it? Does it have brown spots? How big are the spots? Are they close together? Ummm. . . I decided it's better to just not chance eating the mushroom. What if my idea of close together spots is different from his?
