Doctors and Important Dates
Have I mentioned recently how much I love my regular doctor? In the course of my life I’ve had good doctors and bad, technically excellent doctors who have no ability to talk in terms the patient understands, and doctors who simply don’t talk at all. And then there’s my GP. I had a 10:00 a.m….
I’ll return to haunt you.
Ever hear this old chestnut? Q: What’s the difference between a surgeon and God? A: God doesn’t think he’s a surgeon. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Talk today at the lunch table in the cafeteria touched on the plight of that poor teen in North Carolina who had the mix-up with her heart-lung transplant. She was waiting on a…
Chastising the Kitten from Hell
Candle, you made me laugh out loud with you comment regarding clapping hands to startle her. That used to work on KfH, but anymore she doesn’t notice unless the hands are actually within striking distance. Last night I clapped my hands when first I observed her monumental leap, and I swear she thought I was…
More pics, little news.
Let’s start with the fun stuff first, shall we? The Clueless Wonder doesn’t get nearly enough press. His feline acne isn’t showing any particular improvement, and he now runs when he sees me coming because he thinks I’m getting ready to Oxi-pad his poor cratered chin. Twice a day he’s right to run. I feel…
HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS!
Once I get out of work (which should be imminently) I get to pick up KfH from the vet’s! She’s going to require close watch and easy to digest food for a few days, but she’s doing great. I wonder if I can find strained turkey babyfood anywhere for her Thanksgiving dinner….
3:26 a.m., EDST
Comfortable, familiar, and wearing a little thin. At least my cable is up and working tonight. Kitten asleep on the lap. The Socialist informed me tonight that she’s no kitten, but she’s still a third smaller than the other two, and when she sleeps on my lap she makes a burbling noise. She might be…
this is the kind of letter that is tough to write, but you pull it off. too bad they can’t know more about you.
I think that’s pretty good. I tried to read it from the recipient’s perspective. I think that you waited until this time of year is actually very good. The first holiday season after losing a loved one is very difficult, and this letter might make it easier. The only thing I might even suggest to add is that you are taking exceptional care of their child’s liver, that you don’t drink and are careful about medication that could damage it. They might feel better to know that the doctors are unsure as to why your original liver failed but that you were not engaging in behaviors that could have put you at risk. Oh, and you could add that it is working normally.
The above are just suggestions, and those particulars are not necessary, I suppose, but if it were the Kid, I would feel better to know that whoever got his organs would take good care of them.

Great letter. You have always had a way with words.
Beautiful…
Beautiful…
Beautiful.
What a beautiful letter.
I would not change a thing.
Telling them about your past health would only make them sad and they do not need to know that.
You did an excellent job telling them just what they needed to know….that you are leading a ‘normal, healthy and happy life’ once again, thanks to their ‘decision’.
That will make them ‘happy’ knowing that they did they right thing. Also knowing that part of ‘them’ is living on, in you, is comforting to them, alone.
Again….
What a Beautiful letter.
Love,
Honey
P.S…
You letter also tells them…
What a ‘Beautiful person’ you are.
I think it’s a great letter. I think you did a great job showing how much a difference it has made to your life. I’m glad you were able to find the words.
