to you and all the others out there that "help" people, I say thanks!

about two weeks ago, I had a hypotensive episode in the middle of my PM&R doc appt. it freaked me out cuz I lost consciousness and have like a 5min gap in my memory. but I knew I was in 'good hands' with my doc and nurse there.

anyways, today I hand-delivered 2 thank you gifts at my appt, one to each of them. the gift included a Thank You beanie baby bear and a hand-written thank you card! I wrote in there "thank you so much for taking such good care of me"....
I know what they did was 'part of their job' but it was not a normal every day thing for a rehab doc and I was in a city where I knew no one. so I wanted them to know that I appreciated what they did for me.

back on topic, when 'odd' medical things happen, it's hard to know which doctor will take you seriously and which will just laugh/shrug it off. and which will just blame it on mental-illnesses and which will take the time to look for the real answer/reason, even if that means extra time and effort. that's where I struggle....

and back to your request, if you are interested you can read about it here:

Many thanks to you @jrae for that link and your appreciation of my medical colleagues world-wide. I'm in surgery at the mo but had 2 patient cancellations! Neither let me know!

That was most sweet of you showing your appreciation in giving those gifts. My patients do the same, or send Thank you cards.

I'll read that link later having saved it.
