While I'm sitting here waiting, an elderly couple sit on opposite sides of the room talking to each other. When the woman ignores him, he grunts...gurgles...and makes other indistinguishable noises. She in turns, flip the pages of her magazine to the point of ripping the pages.
I thought about how this odd mating ritual was so like my growing tumor. Obviously at some point these two loved each other, much like I used to love my working thyroid. But when parts begin to fail, grow growths, and eventually kill what little desire for happiness that can be found, it's time to chop it off....err....reevaluate. Lol.
So to the old folks making my wait intolerable, please just tell each other that you make each other miserable or give into the rutting sounds he keeps making and do the nasty between the magazines stand and fake plants. Please.
To the doc, thank you for being the kind of person who takes time with his patients.
To all of you reading this... What is the funniest thing you've seen in an office waiting room.
I know it is probably too late but many thyroid nodules can shrink after ethanol injection therapy (abbreviated PEI). Such therapy was mainly used to treat cystic and complex nodules since 1990s.
ReplyDeleteBest!
Rachel - man, I just love your sense of humor. BIG giggly hugs to make your smile even bigger...and mine, too:)
ReplyDeleteMy best friend went through something similar to what you're going through - the waiting and wondering was the most difficult part. Once there's an understanding and choices or direction, the anxiety drops away and you can get on with the rest of your life.
Wish I sat there in the waiting room with you...wow, we could come up with some wild and crazy erotic romance twitter party stuff *grins* At the moment, well...I'm clueless as I've never attended a Twitter party, but I believe I'm attending yours:)
