botox

Mama has this little keratosis looking thing on her forehead so after work I scooped her up from the home for a visit to an old friend for a look-see.  There were a couple of shots and a bit of freezing and voila!  Not even any stitches.  It was hot as hell and she took it like a champ.  When we got back the ladies were already gathering for pre-dinner conversation.  She got to eat lunch with Charley and Mo, so it was a full day.   Tomorrow is hair with Glenda.  She has spells in the morning according to the nurses but I think that's to be expected.  Waking up in a new place, even with your own stuff is hard.  

The doc who did Mom's procedure  had just moved to the 'burg with his wife and kids from San Diego, of all places, when I first met him.  Originally from MO, this couple and I became fast friends and so did our daughters.  When he first began practice here, the Rural Health Clinic concept was new and they tried it in Newbern.  His was the first office I knew that had an FNP on the front line.  And yes...it was in the early 90's.  Kenton worked the ER at Methodist which is probably how we got to be friends.  Any kind of ER doc who will listen to his peers is one that everybody will respect.  He learned to fly small aircraft from the same 96 year old woman who taught my brother.  Karma, man.  Sometimes it's not a bitch at all.  This guy  actually had a loft where he blasted Phil Collins for us.  Sweet.

It's hot and I'm over it.  Praying for a cool front and a day off ^j^
