neurology visit

NEUROLOGY VISIT
this was a surreal visit

she handed me that prescription for aricept (donepezil)
i had just written that same one and handed it to a patient
the day before for his alzheimers disease
and had reviewed the same side effects with him and his
daughter

here with the neurologist she was reviewing the same
side effects with me

so surreal
its hard to believe this all happened

there were two other surreal moments during this time

the first was when i was taking the first neuropsychological test and
was sitting in that room with that stone faced tester
and i was looking up at the blinds out that window at that
tree with its leaves blowing in the wind
i couldnt remember those words she was asking me to recall

so surreal
the last time i took that test last october i sat in that same chair
looked at those blinds looked out that window at that tree
and the leaves were all gone

the second surreal moment was when i saw a well known patient
to me
her mom and i are from the same small town in southern arkansas
i knew the patient well
told mom she looks sick we need to do more testing
mom said you did testing the last time you saw her
this is the 3rd time youve seen her in the last 6 weeks
i did not recall seeing her

so surreal

here is that neurology visit blog
