Health Department

Poor Treyson had to get his shots this morning. I've never seen him cry so hard in his entire life! It was so sad to watch his poor little face go beet red and hardly have enough breath to yell out his pain. I know it's good for him, but I just feel terrible when it happens!

So I had scheduled an appointment for what I thought was 8:00, so I thought I would be late because I was running slightly behind. But I double checked my calendar at a stop light, and wasn't scheduled until 8:10. So we were there in time. I was nervous that we would lose our spot if we were late. So I checked in. About 8:35, I was called over to pay the $5 fee. She said our things would be gathered up and she'd call us back soon. At 9:08, we were called back. That's right, an HOUR later. Treyson wasn't happy, I wasn't happy. He is busy,busy,busy and I would NOT let him get down in that Health department. There's no telling what's been touching the floor, chairs, walls.

Also, while we were walking around in the waiting room, a young teenager with a baby started walking funny and then collapsed on the floor. Her baby was fine...she landed on top of her mommy. But the teenage mom fainted and was not doing well. She was terribly thin, and it looked like she was "on" something. It really made me want to punch her lights out....not to mention, it delayed us being seen even longer because all of the nurses rushed out to help her and the baby.

I'm glad the baby was ok, and I don't know what her mom was up to (granted, it could be a serious problem other than drugs), but I hope this was a wake-up call for her!

I HATE THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT, and I'm so glad that we don't have to go back for a long time!
