Tama-Chan Tuesday


Tama-Chan: Tommy mentioned yesterday that I would tell you today how we helped in a concrete way to make our #1 feel better, that is, aside from all the purring and snuggling. Here is the story.

On Sunday afternoon, #1 was in bed, with nurse Sei on duty. She was resting, almost dozing off, when the phone rang. She got up and answered the phone. It was our friend and her doctor, Dr. J. She had made an appointment to go and see him on Tuesday morning and had been thinking she might want to bring it forward to Monday, but she was certainly not expecting to hear from him on Sunday. He said to her "I heard from Tama-Chan that you were not feeling that great, so I thought I had better call and check up on you." #1 was a little foggy and befuddled until she realised that Dr. J had read the SoS blog post! That is how Tama-Chan had gotten her message through to him! He told #1 that he was home and if she felt up to it, she could come over for a consultation and a prescription right away. He is only about 10 minutes away, so that is what #1 did. He confirmed that there was an adult strain of bronchiolitis doing the rounds at the moment, that it was a rather persistent bug, but that there wasn't anything much to do other than rest. However, since she is scheduled to go to England on Friday, he have her a "what if" prescription so she can take some stronger meds with her in case her state deteriorates whilst she is away. Wasn't that really nice of him?

#1 says thank you for all the nice thoughts and words. She says she is beginning to feel better but will continue to take it real easy this week. Needless to say, we are all highly chuffed at the role we played in making her feel better! Hurrah for blogging!

Nurse Tama over and out!

  4. That was really good of #1's doctor to do that. Well done, Tama-Chan on letting him know. I hope #1 feels much better by Friday, but at least she knows she has back up medication if she needs it.

  6. That’s a real doctor your #1 has. His care for his patients doesn’t know day of the week. #1 is lucky to have him.
    Oh good work Tama-Chan. Hugs and kisses for you.

  8. Our mom is a bit jealous of #1's doctor. You can't find any like that around here. We're glad to hear that #1 is feeling better.

  9. WOW, #1's doctor read it on the blog! How cool is that, and we certainly hope the meds are doing the trick. Having cats and a dog being your nurses must help a lot too!

  10. Alors là ... les voies des blogs sont impénétrables et mènent parfois vers d'étranges mais fort utiles chemins.
    Bravo Tama pour ce passage de message.
    J'espère que ta #1 va très vite aller mieux.
    Douce soirée

  11. That's so cool that the doctor read the blog ! We hope the "what if" drugs work. Dog and cats therapy remains the most important part of therapy, of course. Purrs
