Got a reminder robo call last week telling me I had a doctors appointment the next day and ask for confirmation, "Yes". Got an email confirming the confirmation. Next morning doctors office called said the doc had self sequestered (age) and asked if I could defer appointment to anther doc in the office, "Yes". Again, robo call ask for confirmation, email confirming the confirmation. Ten minutes later AGAIN doctors office called said the doc had self sequestered (age) and asked if I could defer appointment to yet anther doc in the office, "Yes". Again, robo call ask for confirmation, email confirming the confirmation. About an hour later the doctors office called said they needed to defer appointment to 24th, "Yes". Again, robo call ask for confirmation, email confirming the confirmation.
Which brings us to, today the 24th. 10:00am rolls around, we show up and half the parking lot is cordoned off with CV-19 and bio-hazard sings everywhere. we treked the maze and pull up at the doctors office, half a step inside and was hit by a barrage of of medical personal and questions from each; Name? Age? Appointment? Doctors name?... those are the ones I remember. Hold on - stay there. She went to receptionist and returned and ask if I had got a phone call this morning canceling the appointment? "Nope". They politely asked us to leave due to age. "OK" Turning out of the parking lot my cell phone rings and yes it was the doctors office calling to cancel the appointment.
Wordy way of saying doctors office canceled my appointment three times in one hour and again two days later, today.
I have no complainants because we haven't experienced these concerns we have only read about them now we all pull up our pants, pull in the belt another notch and do the right thing. Give what you can when you can and we will get through this together.
I've seen first hand the medical field trying to get a foot hold on this pandemic and like the soldier on the front lines of a daunting imminent battle they are standing fast in the face of adversity.
In my mind all of them are TRUE UNSUNG H E R O S !!
