Adventures in Urgent Care
Mar. 11th, 2008 08:13 pm At 5:15 today I got a phone call from my client. I was on another line so let him ring to voicemail. Mom was actually on her way to see him and I knew she'd be there shortly. I call my voicemail 2 minutes later and a somewhat shaky voice say, "Tera, this is [patient]. I need you to call me. It's about your mom. It's really important." I immediately called him back and went to voicemail. Called mom... went to voicemail... at this point my heart is racing and I'm thinking "don't freak out" and could only think that she was ok...meanwhile my imagination is thinking she had a horrible accident outside his house or something... Finally... about 10 minutes later... (Ten very LONG minutes)... I got ahold of mom. (Interal thought 'ok she's alive') External thought "are you ok?"
Turns out the clients dog attacked and bit my mom. She was able to drive and I met her at Perry Urgent Care where she got 5 stitches on the top of her hand, and 2 on at the base of her middle finger.
Things ended up getting really light though, and we were laughing and telling stories with another lady in the Urgent Care waiting room... and the staff was awesome, as was the doctor. So mom is fine and all is well... Though I am sorely in need of glass of wine and we'll be opening a bottle shortly. *smile*
