it pay$ to be patient

two stories to share with you...

I took Kyle back to the docs b/c 3 bottles of medicine didn't take care of his thrush. His appt. was @ 10:30 and we didn't get called back until a little after 11:00. The doctor checked him out and prescribed a new, stronger medication. We checked in at the pharmacy @ 11:45, and they said it would be about 10-20 minutes. A half hour later it still wasn't ready, so I took Kyle back to the pediatric office where they have a nursing room, fed him, and returned to the pharmacy. By now it was after 12:30, and the prescription still wasn't ready...and now Justin had to go to the bathroom! While in the bathroom, I heard them call Kyle's name...and since I wasn't out there, I was going to have to wait in line again! So, I get to the window and they tell me they are still waiting for the dr. to get back to them and clarify something, but they do explain the hold-up to me. I finally walk out of there at 1:15 (almost 3 hours after I walked in) with a free prescription...they didn't charge me b/c I had to wait so long.

the boys demand my attention now, so tune back again for the next story!
