Pure evil

Top reasons why Kaiser is the anti-Christ

1. Woke up with feet like a hobbit. So big that they don’t even fit into the Bear’s shoes. This can’t be good. The response? “Try swimming for circulation problems.” I can’t walk, but hey, swimming is the cure all right?

2. Went to NST for the Nut. Had trouble finding the Nut.

3. Blood pressure: 180/100. NOT GOOD AT ALL.

4. Feet and hands are kind of a purple color

5. Still very anemic despite being on their iron supplements for several months

6. Ignored the heart murmur that I have developed

7. Liver is still slightly swollen

8. Baby is not moving so often anymore (hour and fifty minutes to get ten kicks). This is greeted with “oh, there just isn’t a lot of room for kicking anymore.”

9. No one has bothered to explain the results to me or Bear of any of the tests.

10. Should we induce? “No, let’s give it another weeks or two.”

NOW CALL ME CRAZY… isn’t this beginning to be a hazard to Nut and me? Our health? Beginning? No I think it has been for a while. So they want me to sign a release form and I decided that, NO, I WILL NOT. I am not going to let them cover their asses when they know this is a bad idea. Of my three docs, one was for popping Nut today but the other two over ruled him. What the fuck? They are so leaving themselves open to a malpractice suit if anything happens to me or Nut.
This job I am interviewing for, I don’t care, and I am dumping Kaiser flat on their asses if I get it. I don’t care if we have to go to the city for health care.
