You are not overreacting. The runaround they're giving you likely has to do with money. If you're hospitalized, it's big $$$$ per day from your insurer or medicare. At my diabetes diagnosis, the doctor I saw told me "You need to be hospitalized immediately with IV's." I have diabetics in my...

Tonight was gourmet dining. A can of Sardines & leftover salad from two days ago. :giggle:

My dad used to explain the bald spot on the back of his head by saying "Grass never grows on a busy street."

Yes, colon cancer is serious business, but..... How often do colonoscopies detect cancer? Less than 1% to 2% of routine screening colonoscopies result in a finding of cancer. However, the exact rate depends on whether the procedure is for routine screening or a diagnostic evaluation, as well as...

HAHA - Colonoscopies. When I do see my doctor for insulin Rx refill, his trained receptionist tries to sell me several medical screenings including a colonoscopy, which I've never had. I always reply, "Well, I'll think about it." I'm 73 & still thinking. 🤣

Today while running errands:

I never knew anyone bathed in something like that until I saw "Lizzie." Elizabeth Montgomery played Lizzie Borden & she washed off the blood in a big bowl between murders. :giggle:

(Not a good read before eating) My brother & I were playing handball against the side of the house. I liked to be barefoot when I was a kid (bad idea). I was 9 or 10. As I ran up to hit the ball, I heard a scraping sound. I looked down & I see a nail through the side of my big toe & it also...

I have two nice parks near me where I walk daily: Serrania Park Lake Balboa

Have you any idea how hard it is to clean drool off my keyboard? 😄

On the way home, I was listening to Marty Robbins - one of my favorite songs of his:

The ultimate in Coyote teasing - a meal he can't get to. :giggle:

Since retiring, I only drive 6,000 miles/year. I bought my first hybrid five years ago - Honda Accord. At first, I thought about the batteries not being charged enough & being stuck somewhere but after reading the manual, I learned that can't happen. When the batteries get too low, the car...
