Got a call from Art’s long time bike buddy, RICK, asking for a favor. He wanted a ride to emergency to get a Catheter put back in! The visiting nurse at the Sr Home he is currently at couldn’t get it done. Ouch!
So, Art & I are sitting in the waiting area (with MASKS on) waiting for Rick to get done.
Always something!
Glad to help out when asked, but it’s a big responsibility doing this in case something happened while transporting him. When I asked Rick if he had a Drivers License with him for ID, he said I’ve been in and out so much they have my records. OKAY!! Amazingly he didn’t have trouble getting in. Seems strange to me.
We had to go through a medal detector and they looked in my purse just like at an airport. I think that’s a good thing. They should do that in the main hospital area too.

We can see why he asked us to take him since the cost of an ambulance is crazy even with insurance. Fortunately the hospital is only 15-20 mins, at the most, from Rick’s Sr place.

Okay, thanks for reading! Back to doing Solitaire!
