Doctor 1, Stone 0

Hola...oops, guess I am not in Mexico.  Too bad, mostly a nice place to be.  We visited the emergency room in our town. last night.  A really well run facility.  There was some concern about the amount of blood after the procedure to go after the stone yesterday.  It was interesting, in that, all of a sudden Medicare cares about what you are doing. Everything was okay and we were sent home.

The nurse who tended to us noticed that H had a scar on his nose.  It reminded me that he had visited a dermatologist in Mexico and she had removed a bump on his nose.  H reminisced about her, said she looked like Catherine Zeta Jones.  She was pretty and without any scruples about pain.  She dug into his nose and left a scar.  He had to wear a pointy nose bandage for a couple of days.  It was laughable, but not to H.

Interesting about medical care in MX.  It is very affordable, unless you want a top Doctor in their system, in a private hospital.  Then....you pay.  We have done the math and so far, our system wins.  I hope they don't completely screw it up.

Still too hot here...113 on the car.  More to come H, C, and Boo too
