The past six days have been. . . . .challenging: I didn’t snarl or snap at anybody, but I’ve been without my two main pain-control meds for too many days!!! “Thinking happy thoughts” doesn’t hack it anymore; I’m closer to the poster of two grumpy vultures sitting on a tree branch. One is stretching its wings, and the caption is “To H_ll with waiting, I’m going to go out and kill something!” Today, the appropriate doctor’s office were open, the stars were in harmonious alignment and my prescriptions were finally filled!!!

Oddly enough, the above mentioned poster was on the office wall of the Air Force Family Services officer who handled the details of my half-brother’s funeral service, after Scotty (Leslie Scott Swindall) and his fiance, Kathy, died in a bizarre accident in The Dahls, Oregon!

Yes, Christy, OH! How I can identafy with that problem. My medical is taken care of by the VA and the hospital I go to is associated with a state medical school in Birmingham, AL. This means that the doctors come and go like itenerant workers and seldom rember to do what is necessary to insure continuty of care of the sheep, er’ “Patients.” So I spend an inordenate amount of time trying to get doctors to renew medications that have labels that say “Do not cease useing this without Dr. OK.”
It’s a wonder I survived this far.
