And I'm battling this darn infection! So crazy! The Keflex doesn't seem to be doing anything I'm not a wimp about pain, but this is hitting me hard. Moving my right arm is rather dreadful because of the pain it causes to the infection on my shoulder/back. So I'm off to yet another doctor's appointment in a little while, hoping he'll do something helpful.
I had a therapy session yesterday and it was one of those that happens, now and then, that causes me to look at M. and say to myself, "Am I really in therapy with this woman? Why?"
People get weird around their birthdays. It's a given, and there are no exceptions I've ever, ever noticed. Her 72nd birthday is coming up next week and, sure enough, she's getting weird.
She spent almost our entire session telling me about her cat having vomiting episodes. So she took him to the vet, had a senior panel done on him (something I desperately want to have done on 2 of mine, do not have the money; I sat there burning with envy and wished she'd just shut up). Then she looked at me, all naivete, and said, "Gee! I was thinking of you, and I said to myself, Poor Laurie! What would she do if she had to have this done for one of her kitties?! I know you can't afford it!"
I just nodded. I wanted to stand up, walk over, and smack her across the face. Then she continued, "Anyway, it turned out that all of his labs were normal. So all that money for nothing. Oh, well, at least we know."
I said, "It's a food issue. He had a reaction to something you fed him." She looked surprised and replied, "Oh! That's exactly what the vet said! Gosh, I should have given you that money!"
What the eff ever, lady. That was a gas waster.
