I walk in the room and hand patient her iron pill that she has been taking 3 times a day for a least a week.
She stares strangely at the pill as if she has never seen it before and asks what it is even though I have told her what it is every time I give it to her.
Patient: I have heard that to much iron can be bad for you.
Me: To much of anything is bad for you.
Patient: Well, that is a good point.
Patient takes the pill.
About Me
- Misplaced Texan
- I am a flailing woman swimming in a sea of grace, committed to leading a thoughtful life of faith. I encourage other grace swimmers to thoughtfully consider their lives so that we can more fully enjoy the grace and love of God. Sometimes this looks like a book review, sometimes it looks like a recipe to make you life easier. Most of the time, it looks like sitting around a table with your favorite hot drink and encouraging each other. I was born and raised throughout Texas, but have been wandering since marrying my husband. We currently live near Charlotte, North Carolina. One of my favorite things to do is grab a coffee, or a tea, or a hot chocolate, and get to know people. This is a place to share life and the table. I have 3 children, my table is messy, but please come anyway.

That's a damn dirty lie. You can never, ever have enough Indian food! ;)
I should know -- I've certainly tried.
