May. 15th, 2003 09:41 amI made it to the end of my street this morning.
Then, as I was struggling to control the coughing and the strangling feeling creeping into my upper chest, I asked myself: Okay, you could sit quietly through this morning's team meeting, rest and not say anything. But how are you going to get through the amount of talking necessarily entailed in three individual client sessions and a group? Can you carry a dozen heavy charts up and down the hall? If walking sixty feet to your car is such a problem, can you really go back and forth all day from your office to the waiting room to your office, back to the storage closet for bus tokens to hand out, back to the admin area to hand in your contact forms, up to medical records to reach and bend and file charts?
Not a chance. No.
I've called the clinic front desk and my morning client. (Fortunately, I didn't have any first-thing-in-the-morning clients because I'm supposed to be at a meeting right now.) Around 11, I'll call my afternoon clients and the group members - I don't know when they all get up, so it's better to wait a bit. And now I'm going to lie down on the couch and rest. If that doesn't help my breathing, I guess I'll call my doctor and see if I can get another nebulizer treatment. Shit, I'm tired of this.
