I can't believe your Mom didn't insist you go to the hospital too! Oh wait, she did.

I'm so glad you're feeling better, because we need a lot more great reads like this. Uh, without the trauma will be fine. Love, Hugs ❤️

I do! Had my last antibiotic today, and stocked up on fruit, veg, and yoghurt to replenish my beleaguered biome.

I know you were hurt and felt awful but as a retired ER nurse ... yes Huntsville... you had me laughing my a** off. You captured the experience perfectly 😂 Thank you for your insight, your humour and most of all for your talented writing. You are my favourite read, Kathleen❤️

The only thing to do when one feels this bad is to find the funny moments and the right words to share them. Thank YOU so much for your work in the field. ER nurses are my favourite - you all have helped me so many times over the years. Such a hard job. I loved going in with something easy and kind of funny. Thank you for reading and this wonderful comment, it made my day.
