A far-away friend asked me today why I don’t talk about doctors.  After all, I’m at that age.  And I’ve been overwhelmed with aches and pains, so here goues this week.  1. hemotologist – just checking 2. otolaryngologist (ENT) to discover it’s not that I’m allergic to Jerusalem that my ear aches dreadfully when we go up there.  It’s that I’m really allergic. 3. dental hygienist – routine 4. pressure room exam.  No, I don’t qualify – because I have to cure my ear problem first.  

There were some other things that happened this week – what were they?  Oh yes, we were threatened with extinction again, the kidnapped hostages weren’t returned and the families are going for desperate measures to bring this to our government’s attention, and we’re still getting rockets – here and there in the south, but heavily in the north.   So every visit to the doctor seems like a luxury.
