bad day
I did not have a great day today. For a start, half the doctors were away so the three who were left had to deal with all the patients. It was crazily busy. Then I spent the whole day feeling like I was gestating a football: for some reason I was really really bloated. I'm blaming on chilli and baked beans.
That wasn't what made me feel really bad though. Today, a really lovely lady got some really terrible news. She's about the same age as my mum, and only came in in the first place because she got a pain in her side after doing some ironing. Today we had to tell her that the teeny tiny skin cancer she had removed in 1999 had spread to her lungs. She is going to die. She won't live to see her children grow up, won't meet her future grandchildren. That tiny little speck, only half a centimetre across all those years ago, is going to kill her.
