At the emergency room today (don’t ask), the doctor wanted to calm me down (really, don’t ask) and initiated a conversation about my academic degrees and other achievements.

“How did this university get so lucky as to get you?!?” she exclaimed.

I probably should have asked for a doctor’s note, mandating that the university appreciate me more.

And I don’t mean students. Students are mega appreciative.

    Hope that whatever it was, was resolved successfully and you are feeling better. I guess you being back at blogging about it is a good sign..!?

    ERs can be quite scary, so the kindness/attitude of the nurses and the staff can make a huge difference to the patient experience.

      Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. I sweated like a donkey in an outfit that covered me completely but I did it and no student was traumatized. 🙂
