If you can't do anything for me, can you give me my money back?

I'd like to thank all my wonderful friends who commented, emailed, called, and text me after hearing about my grandpa. I am truly blessed to have such wonderful and thoughtful people surrounding me.

In other news, I am sick today. I feared I had somehow manged to be infected with the swine flu... Oink! Oink! and so I called my mom because who else does a grown woman call when she is sick? My mother picked me up and took me to InstaCare where I was forced to put on a face mask and sit in the waiting room. In my sicken mental state, I didn't think to have my mother take a picture of me. It would have been a pretty one, I assure you. Next time I'm in distress I'll have someone take my picture so you too can witness my pain.

But the good news is, I don't have swine flu. Apparently, a mild case of bronchitis is what I have. Thank you doctor for telling me that you can't do anything for me. BUT, what you could do is give me back my $35 co-pay and I think we should be good. Mmmkay?

If it makes you better I'm pretty sure people died from Bronchitis 100 years ago.

That is funny because my mom is sick too so she went to instacare and they told her she had laryngitis. She already knew that since she didn't have a voice! Very helpful!

Of course you call your mom. Even when you are a mom, you probably still will. We are sick and where did we spend all day today, MOMS!!!

You know that's why they have you pay before they see you. Nobody would really pay $35 to find out they need to drink juice and rest. BOO.

Feel better soon!

What?! I had bronchitis and was given antibiotics and an inhaler. They should have given you something.

We have swine flu at our house which we don't know how we got because we haven't been anywhere literally in like 2 weeks. Anyways, short story - now its turning to bronchitis. You might have had swine flu without knowing it because it turns in to bronchitis. On the bright side, at least you don't have to spend that $35 on a vaccine! Get better soon, and so sorry to hear about your grandpa :(
