I am watching MLB.TV. There is a very amusing commercial in which a professor tells students to open their textbooks to a certain page number. The students look puzzled. They don’t know what a page number is.
Some days I can relate. |

I was quite shocked when one of sibling's children told me they did not do the readings assigned in college. And this offspring is going into the medical field. .
I can only assume there is some sort of non-reading extra credit carrying her through It helped strengthen my resolve not to go to those people until things are quite dire indeed if even then. I am old now and everyone has to die sometime. I would rather it be from the disease than the cure or curers. __________________ Please NO @ Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.

It is worse than being an md - I think the offspring wants to be a nurse.
I have already horrified her with some of my views on life, death, and western medicine. __________________ Please NO @ Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.

Nurses just need to read Hoyle's anyway.

I found the nurses almost more impossible to deal with than the mds when my person was sick. I remember going ballistic on one who, when we called the office as the md told us to do to get her pain meds refilled after she was released from having surgery on her back and hip (she had breast cancer that spread to her bones and other places) suggested she was faking it and to "try and wait it out a day or two" before calling back. I then called the md's cell phone and we had the prescription within about 20 minutes and an apology, but the snotty nurses sent me over the edge. There were maybe 2 who were not unbearable.

I hope you enjoy the dogsitting, DP.
I'm floundering after today's session. Didn't get half of what I wanted to say out, and then R dropped a significant bombshell at the end of the session. The saving grace was that we ended on a bit of a laugh. I had a glass of water during, and I'd taken a sip whilst she was using the loo. When she came back, she thanked me and before I could say anything, I burped. 'Sorry!' 'You are excused...I did the same thing yesterday, my friend said "You're disgusting!" R said that what she found funniest was the surprise with which I looked around. "You might have released something there!" "There's probably an entire school of yoga..." "You have a beautiful laugh - I don't think I've ever heard you laugh like that before." In the moment, we pretty much forgot to set up for next week, but I have an appointment next Thursday at 10.30am. "Keep laughing, and keep burping. I might drink a lot of lemonade before I come next week..' __________________ 'Somewhere up above the great divide Where the sky is wide, and the clouds are few A man can see his way clear to the light 'You have all the grace you need for today, and today is all that matters.' - Steve Austin |

Yikes, it's good you went and got it checked out! I wonder if you somehow could have injured it in the fall, or if it's just coincidence? Hope it's nothing too serious. |

Hey couchies. Still on the struggle bus. Saw T yesterday who wants to keep me out of the hospital. He's also making me stay out of my house b/c I ruminate a lot when I'm home, so I'm texting him twice a day to check in.
I feel so awful but am grateful that my T is making such a concerted effort to help get me well. |

I missed my session with R today.
I don't have internet on my phone unless WIFI is free. Of course of my building picked today to upgrade their internet and only posted a notice near the lifts after it had already been down for two hours. It went off at 8.20am and I didn't know if it would come back in time by 10.30am, so I walked down to the petrol station to steal wifi and to let him know. I said I'd pay him for the session, but I' secretly hoping he will say it's okay as he's never charged even when I was acting out. I was already in a state from yesterday, so SH'ed for the first time in months and cried an awful lot. Other news: Forensic medicine - 3rd May Sports med - 17th May Got a date and spot for Pharmacology 28th may. Derma = 14th June. provisionally, but it depends on when neurology is released as I've been studying that for a while now, so could push it back. __________________ "Love, like life, flows Through the heart.

I'm glad he's willing to step up and offer you the additional support you need. Perhaps you could consider increasing your session number with him for now? __________________ "Love, like life, flows Through the heart. Feel the thrill of the flow And say nothing." |
