we were at the docs today.... it was our second scheduled but third visit to him and thats not including the middle of the night visit with him at the hospial a month ago....for someone in the first trimester, thats a lot of visits.... hmmmmm... we were at his clinic at seven after work for a first come first serve visit, luckily theres only one lady ahead of us... it wasnt long before we were called in.....
doc: hello.... how are we today? are the rashes gone?
THE WIFE: yah, the rashes are gone...
doc: did the doctor gave you a note to pass to me?
(dr thio refered us to a skin doc for THE WIFEs rashes during our last visit with him. A blood test, a course of anti-biotics and consultations cost us $480)
me: nope, but he sure was expensive..... that visit costs us $480 and his clinic dont take nets or credit cards... i think he expects people to walk around with loads of cash...
doc: okay..... so what did he say?
THE WIFE: he mentioned someting about an infection and the virus coming together and little blood vessels breaking up near the skin...
me: but she seems to be getting better if she stayed away from seafood....
doc: hmmm.... you got another appointment with him?
THE WIFE: yah... two weeks later...
doc: maybe he would post me a note or something..... right.. so how are you? you seem to be losing weight...
THE WIFE: yah, i cant seem to keep any meals down, been vomiting three to four times a day....
doc: okay.... lets see how the baby is doing....(the nurse readies the wife and we are looking at the screen)
doc: here we are... the baby looks fine... i can see limbs forming... he seems to be dancing....
me: hmmm... can i have a picture of that?
doc: no... i will give you something better... after all you paid $480....
me: hmmm....
doc: here.... this 3 d picture would be better... we can see that the facial features are forming... everthing looks very good to me.....
yup... that shy little fella, hiding behind the wall is me number two....
