Still a dreamer…Old Memories and New Hopes

Just a Number….but…..

I try diligently to stay away from doctors. I do remember going when I was younger, and how comforting when one would say, “I’m giving you the same advice I would give my mother.”

Fast forward to the present time. If a 70-year-old doctor tells me the same, I may think differently.

Perhaps throwing myself in front of a fast moving truck.

    Oh NO… don’t do that!!!! But take care of your health. Don’t assume that going to the doctor is always bad news. Just because you ignore something, it won’t always go away… 🙂

      Not to worry Courtney. I do go when necessary….post was meant to be humorous though because you do have older doctors telling you those words, and I find funny. I was raised though….. with if it doesn’t go away in a week, see a doctor, and also if you look for trouble you will find. My brother is a psychiatrist for over 50 years and feels the same. He has seen patients who have been put on way too much medication. I believe there are times when you can “heal thyself.” Lets try and stay healthy, that’s the most important. xo Always enjoy reading your comments and thank you.
