Next Time You Think You Are Losing It...

I am posting this for all the mothers out there who, every once in a while, think they are losing it. I have come to the conclusion that the day you give birth to your first child, you lose half of your mind. So the more kids you have, the more you feel like you have lost it sometimes. So just in case you are having one of those days, remember one of our Mammogram patients today. As she was signing a consent form, she very ecstatically exclaimed, "Oh, it's April Fools Day!" I looked at her thinking, maybe she was kidding or looking for some sort of smile like it was an inside joke between her and her friend that was standing behind her. Nothing! I said, "Ma'am, it's July." She looked at me in some what disbelief and said, "Well, I guess I am running a little bit behind." Bless her heart! She wasn't the youngest patient we have ever had! So remember, just when you think you are at the worst of it, there is always someone out there who thinks it's April Fools Day!

She also got back and asked if her ankle brace was going to interfere with her exam. So many thoughts came to mind of this woman with her leg up on the mammo platform I about lost it!
