In Between Days

Wednesday.
Wash day. Thankfully, no hassle. 
I had my letter with the results of my diabetic eye scan. All clear! It's always a relief when I get that letter, and now I can go every two years now. I hate going, as its my biggest fear is losing my sight, I would rather die than go blind. And I don't just mean that as a throw away comment. I really mean it. But I go because detecting stuff early is always better than leaving them until its too late.
Charlotte went for her knee op today and we were worried about her until we heard everything was OK. No procedure is "simple" or "routine" people shouldn't dismiss them as such. Every little invasion into our bodies is a big deal. It annoys me as much as someone dismissing what's wrong with you with, "There's always someone worse off than you" Bollocks! What happens to you as an individual is very important. It just means they don't think you're as important as you thought they did, or they just have no empathy. So before those words come out of your mouth, stop and actually listen to the person concerned. Rant over.
