I had to drive to Erie today — a two-hour drive for a five minute post-op follow-up with my doctor.
Still, I’m always grateful when I go to the doctor, no matter what it takes to get there or how much of my day it takes. I spent a long (long) time without health insurance and those memories are still vivid in my mind.
There’s nothing like contemplating whether your ear infection can wait for the clinic to open on Monday or if it’ll slip into strep or something worse if you don’t go, uninsured, to the ER on a Saturday night.
Anyway. As I was leaving my little town this morning, I passed a church and in front of the church, there was a message board that said — “What’s behind your not?”
I have no idea what the sermon prompted by that question will be about, but the question yourself fascinated me enough that it occupied my mind all the way to Erie.
