Thanks. I try.
Discovering new colors. I think they clash quite nicely, actually.

Booty full perturbations ... like sunlight through a dispersive lens ... rain? Collective small focus points ... with interference patterns ... pure observation without nothing but light and water ... imagine without nothing ... excessively exponential void?

Thus the expansion ... deep mode! Very mankind-like ... as we drift off ...

Relax; what goes up ...

Would it be any consolation to note that you have coped with every difficult circumstance llife has sent you so far - and will probably survive this too? Hugs as you step forward into tis new thing.

Thanks...I just wish everything wouldn't happen at once, and especially when I'm not feeling up to do anything.
 
I had a day like that yesterday. Ended up in the throes of a horrible depression, though a walk in the evening helped mitigate it.
 
If I could just do one thing and get it done that might help but everything - including the paper - is in complete limbo.
 
OY...Hospital just phoned and mom is supposed to have a bone scan tomorrow and they need someone (ie me!) to sit with her for 4+ hours...I can't as I'll be at my own appointments tomorrow...would it not be brighter to find out if I'm available - and able to get there - before making plans that involve me?????
 
You can relax without a guilty conscience on that one. Their arrangement was poorly organised. They get to fix it. In your shoes I would have been tempted to suggest they call your sister! Had they even told you that a bone scan is needed ?

I had been told nothing about a bone scan or the need for one before today's call...and they claim the procedure can't happen unless I'm there so it is being cancelled...no point telling them to call sis as she works Thurs...wouldn't surprise me if they called her and she told them to call me - again, they should be seeing if it can be arranged not telling me after it has been arranged.
 
It is their problem that they did not check with you before making the appointment for the bone scan @BethAnne. They need to work with you to find a time that works for both you and the system. Good on you for setting boundaries. Don't feel guilty about it.
 
Today I had my regular doctor's appointment at the clinic. I see the doctor every three weeks which is between rounds of treatment. The doctor I saw today was the first doctor I saw at the clinic about five weeks ago. She was delighted to see the changes since the last she saw me. She remember that time because of how big the tumour was. It was cool to see her face as she did the exam today. The treatment is doing what it is supposed to do. :love:

No guilt here...just frustrated with their lack of consideration.
 
I think that's pretty typical for appointments, sometimes I don't even get a call, the date and time is mailed out. They expect people to work around it, if not possible then one has to call and reschedule.
I've had a bone scan, not sure why BethAnne would need to be there for it.

I couldn't see why either as she's had them before (not since she broke her hip tho) and no one had to be with her.
 
I wondered why they would need someone to be with her other than to pawn her off on someone. She's in the hospital so could get the dye injected then return to her floor for the two hour wait. Then return for the scan. Did she have problems last time?

I learned that's the procedure for appointments here at the local hospital. When I was referred for an MRI, I called to follow up when I hadn't heard anything. The booking woman told me they mail out appointments that are more than two weeks away. When I commented that this was poor practice, especially when there's an issue that is potentially anxiety provoking, I could hear her shrug her shoulders. I contacted the surgeon's office because I knew he needed information before he could refer me to the next step. The next day I heard from the MRI booking and I had an appointment that week. I guess my point is they can shift things around if they need to.

I don't recall any problems...I was told I had to sit with her for 4+ hours and they couldn't see how I couldn't rearrange my schedule to accommodate that - told them I had to be on my way to Red Deer during most of that time for my own appointments.

That's nuts. I'm speechless. Did they know you had your own appointments? Do they know how hard it is to get appointments sometimes?

Since I've never spoken to this gal before, I doubt she would have believed I had appointments even if she knew - as I just got them confirmed Monday, I haven't told anyone except the gal who will be driving me...now, had they asked mom, she should have been on the ball enough to say it was possible I wouldn't be available as she knew I was going to try and get an acupuncture appointment this week.
