  • After a decade

    So, I’m no longer impressed with the healthcare system in Norway. I had a GP in the US I had for 10 years. In Norway I’ve gone through 4 GP’s in 4 years. Not okay. I realize that my former doc caused lasting damage to my health record & that’s Not professional or acceptable.

    Hence, why things transpired with the Norwegian health authority. Not okay. I am not impressed, not in the slightest. They’ve raised the premium to $400 instead of what it was before.

    The new doc is skating on thin ice with me because she messed up pretty bad after my first visit with her & I am no longer impressed. After how unprofessional the other docs have been, I feel trepidation with my next visit. She should be able to make better notes & keep track of her patients.

    That’s not on me as a patient it’s on her as the doctor. First do NO harm, it says in their oath. She also apparently can’t send emails either. I am going to tell her she has Big shoes to fill & the next appointment hinges on that. Fingers crossed she has enough sense & professionalism to rectify her Fu** up.

    Till next time.

  • Spring has sprung

    Well, the good news is that one can now have an utepils & see friends but not more than 5. It’s a start so it makes me happy. Hopefully the local news tomorrow won’t be full of COVID cases & we can really enjoy Spring.

    The neighborhood is full of people doing yard work & going for walks. It’s soo nice to see. My hubby took the dog to scale a small mountain behind our house. I have done some chores but am content with what I’ve accomplished.

    Tomorrow the weather is supposed to be even warmer. Then the rain comes back but not in a bad way. I have had a good week, with some really good news. But it’s early days so I won’t say much else.

    Be outside & take a deep breath & enjoy the change of seasons. Till next time.

  • Soo close…

    But no cigar. We’re excited to hear that the government is now allowing us to be more open. After months of being cooped up. Then they tell us we may have to wait till the Fall to get vaccinated. Sux. Clearly.

    Today I have been reflecting on a toxic relationship I had for 6 months back in the Fall of 2005. He preferred his Expensive six pack of beer that he had Everyday to me. At the end of the relationship he assaulted me over crackers on his bed. Very mature he was.

    Then he proceeded to stalk me until I became homeless in the Summer of 2007. When he couldn’t find me anymore he stopped. Pathetic. It rattled me though & I think he had a tracker on my phone. What made him particularly scary was that he lied on court documents & accused me of being a drug addict.

    Something I have Never been not even when I was homeless. But the stalking was the most frightening. His inability in his 40’s to not let go. That’s also pathetic, when a grown man won’t take NO for answer. He reinjured my neck & didn’t take responsibility for it.

    I feel sorry for him. How pathetic he was in the end & how desperate for attention. That’s why I was told not to file for a restraining order because he wanted my attention & expected me to use the court system much like he had. Making up bullshit just so he could get a rise out of me.

    People such as him need to be put on ignore & walked away from. Now, I am married to a true gentleman, open, honest & sweet. That makes me grateful everyday.
