this morning I took a picture of the hibiscus… it was glorious…

been thinking about healthcare recently… various people I know are dealing with issues…

I think back to all the appointments we had with doctors and surgeons about my hernia repair, and how all that red tape and slowness meant that I only needed one operation to deal with the hernia and cancer… how miraculous was that, lol…

getting on the good side of the support staff seems to be so important… whether it is the receptionist at the doctor’s office or the staff at the nursing station… these are the people who can move the process forward…

when George was in heart failure and the appointment with the cardiologist was weeks away, I had a great conversation with one of his staff and shared how ill George was… when a cancellation came up a day later we got in to see the doctor and I believe that saved his life and gave us another six years together…

tonight the five blooms had reduced to two… still beautiful, but quite the change from earlier in the day…

much like life…

another wonderful sunset…
