You're a sight girl!! LOL

When that pet turtle grows up and becomes a doctor, we'll see who laughs last!
:)

The turtle is in shell shock.   Circus sized? I guess that means he can raise a tent. I once went out with a developer who erected a building!

Okay - now for the serious stuff. I think these notes on charts could be real. All kidding aside, I used to see a Nurse Practioner for OB/GYN who was on my PPO. I needed a biopsy and I wanted a second opinion, so I went to a specialist and had my records sent to him. I'm nosy, so while I was waiting for the doctor I looked at my folder. I saw notes on my chart that I had slept with a homeless man and I had exposure to AIDS. They were difficult to miss since the AIDS part was written in red marker.

I was positively floored! Then I thought back to my last visit with the N.P. and remembered at the time a man I worked with had been evicted from his apartment and needed a place to stay. So when she asked if I lived alone, I guess I mentioned that I had my own place, but there was a man I was dating staying with me since he lost his apartment. (so that's the "homeless man.") I also was asked about my job. I was taking a course for an HHA (Home Health Aide) in Florida. (that must have been were the "AIDS" diagnosis came from)

I wouldn't joke about something as serious as HIV or AIDS or the homeless. I am not HIV positive and I have never slept with a homeless man I picked up on the street! This woman was running from one examining room to the other and scribbling down bits and pieces of what I was telling her and answering the phone at the same time. This happened in 1997, but it's something that I'll always remember. So you never know what people are writing down.

LOL! Funny but true.
