Three smokes and 20 miles a day.

Today was my two week post-op visit to my surgeon.

He walks in, looks at my belly, says everything looks great. Then he looks at my chart and says..."Three smokes a day? Do you smoke?"

"What? No I don't smoke. What are you talking about?" Then he looked at the chart again and said, "Oh, this must say three SHAKES a day." (A nurse came in and took the preliminary info from me before he saw me and I told her I drink three Unjury drinks a day.)

Then he said, "I see you're up and moving. 20 miles a day?" I laughed and said, "Sure, I WALKED here today." (After I'd just mentioned I lived two hours away.) LOL Then he looked embarrassed and said, "Oh, I guess that m. stands for minutes instead of miles." LOLOLOLOL

I told him that his nurse had been hanging around doctors too long. She needed a penmanship class!

Don't you wonder what they are thinking??? My doctor I hope was tired when he asked me over the phone the first weekend after surgery when the sutures were itching me when he did my surgery? Since then he has full cognizance?? and knows everything about my case, but he scared me when it was only three days out.
