Mom just called. Sounds awful. She has the flu…
She calls Kaiser to see if there is anything special she should do. First, the jackass says, “Well, I don’t see a flu shot in your file.” (What, is he gonna withhold treatment? She got hers at work), then he tells her she should just be grateful that she had a flu shot so her flu won’t be as bad. Nice bedside manner these idiots have. I’m more empathetic in my job.
She asks if I can do a quick run to the store for her. Of course!! She was going to go herself, but one, it’s 30 degrees out there and getting colder, and two - in her words, “My hair hurts…”
So, I’m off for ginger ale and soup for Mom.
