I was supposed to call my nurse, Kathy, if I hadn't heard from her by Tuesday. I called about 10:45 this morning & I think it was the receptionist who answered & said she wasn't in this morning. I asked if she'd be in this aft. & she said no, in fact she wouldn't be with them much longer. So I explained why I was calling and she said she'd have Susan find out what was going on and call me back. So I waited all day and finally at 4:30 I couldn't stand it so I called. Susan answered. She hadn't even gotten my message from this morning. I asked her if I was supposed to come in every week for blood work and she said no. She said she'd have to check on the results of the one last Friday & call me tomorrow. She asked what test they were supposed to do & I said I didn't know. She said it was probably a repeat pregnancy test. I don't know why I didn't ask her if that means I might not really be pregnant. I guess I really didn't think of that til afterwards. I asked her was it true Kathy was leaving & she said yes her last day is Friday. This Friday. Day after tomorrow Friday. I can't believe she's leaving and didn't even mention it last week. She's the one I trusted most of all and now she's leaving. I feel like she's deserting me and now there's no one there who cares about us or how I'm doing. Now that I think about it, what if she's not just leaving but she was fired for doing something wrong? It is kind of strange for her to be leaving all of a sudden, especially in the middle of everything. When they said not much longer I figured they meant at the end of this series which is the middle of next month. Don't nurses have to give a 2 wks notice like everyone else? I just can't believe she'd just leave without saying something. She always acted like she really cared and was really interested & now I don't know if that was real or all just an act. If it was an act, she's really good at it.
My mom had trust issues sometimes...
