So, though the doctor was nice enough, I felt like when I was telling her about something, she just was like, yes, our lover is fine. Wasn't really interested in what I had to say. And I know though she tried to reassure me, it's still a frightening situation. And me being in this situation, being the patient, I just wish that she would have been a little more empathetic to what I was saying and not just be like, you're fine, that's good, you'll be okay. Most people don't do, you know, I just felt like she was reading a speech for me.
