Elite ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() ceilidh - 2012-03-08 11:48 AM I took a bullet the other day... at my physical that I have to have for work. The nurse was doing the weight, height, blood pressure thing. She asked me if I have fallen down lately. I usually bump myself up quite a bit so I searched my arms for bruises she may have noticed. I was wondering why she asked and I replied "no". She then asks me if I feel safe in my home. I was completely flummoxed, I told her yes then I made the HUGE mistake of asking why she wanted to know. She stated that it is now State law that they ask patients. I must have looked as confused as I was so she clarified.... "to prevent elder abuse". To ME!!!!!!!! ELDERLY!!!!!!!!! Holy chit!
I think she was just practicing on you! There is NO WAY that she could have thought that you were an elder!! |

I was in the ER a few years ago with a sprained wrist, HUGE lump on my right quad, and a badly scraped up left shin, plus lots of other bruises, the ER nurse asked me the same questions. I had gotten kicked by a horse in the quad which knocked me off of the horse I was on. I'm not sure she believed me because she gave me pamphlets to take home. My SIL and niece were with me when it happened, I do have witnesses. I have a friend who years ago was a cop in Atlanta. Last year when I passed out in the shower and had the huge shiner he asked me in private what happened. I told him I passed out in the shower. Then he said "this is me you're talking to, if something else happened you know you can trust me." I really did pass out in the shower. |

I can see where they were coming from, but it still is weird when you are telling the truth and you aren't believed. At least you have a buddy who cares! |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() That's odd, Robin. I almost bought some caulk at the store yesterday. I need to recaulk around my tub, bathroom sink, and probably around the base of the toilet while I'm at it. We live the most glamorous lives. |

Champion ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Happy Monday all. It was tough getting up today but I sure love the daylight on the other end of the day! I am off to buy paint and hopefully get a swim in. I am still debating that one. My shoulder is tender from the weekend scraping/caulking and I don't want to push it over the limit. |
