"You should know you are going to be on a strict diet plan of foods rich in vitamin B-12 in small amounts through the days to come.
"That's alright with me. I am not a heavy eater anyway; just the picky part makes me a little frightened yet if it gets me home clinic? Yeeey!"
"I meant either you have a cook who can keep up, already in house or we make provisions for that too as well Jenn." He addressed her by her name abbreviating. Having built trust with his patient, her would like to be cordial to ease the tension that comes with titles whiles still maintaining professionalism.
"I do have a cook at home, but I seldom eat at home considering my busy schedules. I must confess, I do fast food alot than home cooked meal. Although, I do my best to take in healthy foods besides temptations are a part of life right? Don't let me eat any more into your time doc. Asare. I really appreciate all your efforts; thanks for saving me and my little one."
The doctor makes his way out of Jennifer's ward thinking back on their first meeting, the circumstances. What transpired compared to the present bringing to mind the maxim 'first impressions count the most' how cliche!
"I am surprised at how warmly she is too me now, when she almost ruined my life in our first encounter. if her test results had come out any different? Am sure to be in the streets hawking iced pure water to her satisfaction by now. 'he ponders wryly' who would have imagined she was such a nice lady withal to the former personality. Thank goodness! I didn't dwell on fundamental impacts which at the end of the day was a good call. 'he smiles proudly' Be it as it may, currently I am threading cautiously because no one knows when the mood imbalance will surface again, neither do I know what she'd want to take from me this time around. Let me make haste to put everything in place so we can proceed in the comfort of her home peacefully so it does not become the generator of another episode. I am just glad we found common grounds to enable me execute my responsibility as a professional, medical personnel with ease.
JENNIFER'S POV:
Basically, I was higgledy-piggledy with all the various sounds I heard. I mean the beeping, tick-tock, tweeting etc. followed by that repulsive clinical antiseptic stench! Yak! I tried to cover my nose but couldn't. My hands was stiff and heavy alright for idling. However, it was not the reason for the difficulty. I felt a tingle as well as cold on my pointing finger, something was clipped to it. I was compelled to look at what it was, I opened my eyes to a vague vision. I had just began regaining my senses. With a blurry sight I looked at the device similar to a peg on clothes on the dry line latched to my finger that of the lips of a suckling baby on the mother's breasts. I tried to focus my eyes which still gave me a translucent view for a clearer sight. I could faintly make out the line extending from my finger to a white lit screen, which gave to the hearing a beep sound every few second or so. it was the device that they were making use of in monitoring my BP; clipped to my ring finger that prevented me from shielding my sense of smell from the nauseating scent. My inquisitiveness was peeked! I knew that was definitely not my room. I wondered where I was whiles I blinked so hard, a couple of times more to clear my sight and was amazed to see the doctor I had been anything but nice to, checking me out when the fog gradually cleared in my eyes. After my emergency involuntary short sleep lols! The last i recall, I was at home in an excruciating pain, on the phone with old soldier. The ever errorist Mansa had committed another one of her blunder. She seems to be flopping more and more in recent times. If not for the fact that, I am well aware of who she is? I'd say she has it in for me. That notwithstanding, in a way she was off good use to me. I needed a way to tell the truth as it is without being doubted. I had my thoughts all over the place worried sick and she in a twist of one of her many slips paved a path for me. Initially I could have killed her if l had the strength! I felt betrayed by her Freudian slip. I felt painfully sold out by the only person on my side. I was raging furious at that time. Looking back now I think she did me a wonderful service. She lifted the heaviest burden off my shoulders just in the snap of the wrong hand. Earnestly she saved me the stress. Knowing perfectly well who she is, she should be beating herself up for what happened. I am not longer agitated with her rather I am grateful for what she did. That on the back burner, to tell the truth, my brief sleep was a mix of scare infused with bliss. It all felt like a normal day dream to me, where you take a nap for few hours waking up all refreshed. Howbeit, it was a death walk for me. I saw myself briskly moving away on the wind as if I was out of time for an occasion only to be stuck in a boat in the middle of a peaceful clean breathtaking river. When I was supposed to be crossing a road! it's crazy but I saw some be it figures or people, mind of in a debate. it was like years not a flighty eighteen hours as I heard, I was out, being stranded there. Tried as did to row the boat to one side of the other? it wouldn't badge. Until all those creeps disappeared. All of a suden the boat reversed by itself without any effort from me. I didn't even get a good view due to obscurity of my two head lights for one reason or the other I know not of. Even so was more ashamed when I realized he had gone to great length to save me and my baby. The embarrassment I felt was so much so it was awkward for me to interact with him as his patient, but he made it so easy like a smooth water flow. I could not help but deep my foot right in taking in the complete feeling of relaxation. What do I mean? he is a natural at making a person feel at home around him with professionalism as a hall mark. I could sense that he would be of a cool caliber striped off the cover coat. I felt down cast knowing I treated him the worst! when all he did was help me find out what was wrong with me moreover to alleviate my pain. Thanks to him, my hormonal imbalance belting me through the roller coaster of unacceptable me is on check now. if he did all this whiles maintaining his cool? it only meant one irrefutable prove, he is a good person filled with empathy. He never determined who I was based on my early morning glance but from a helpless perspective. I don't care if I am being emotional right now but he is a human being with feelings! Poised to be professional does not mean taking nonsense from people? I must find a way at home to render am apology to this gentle man in white coats, also my knight in shining armor for saving the life of I and my baby.
