Be prepared

There is nothing harder than trying to be positive when all the facts point to problems.  And there is nothing more difficult than dealing with arrogant people who think they know what I am thinking, feeling, and saying.  The chances for mistakes rise in ways I am sure I still haven't completely imagined.

For over a month I have been treated for heart problems when I have a respiratory and sinus problem.  I have had bad reactions to the drugs, been prescribed other drugs in error and suffered side effects that leave my Achilles tendons stiff and sore.  I may have heart problems on top of it all, but being sick so long can't be good for that either. Now that I am completely worn down they are going to do a stress test and even that was ordered incorrectly the first time.

If I had five weeks to prepare someone to fail I cannot imagine doing any better than this!
