Miss Fortune
“Addis’s office listening to him make arrangements with Cedars-Sinai to do an emergency C-section for seven thirty tonight.
According to Dr. Addis I have a medical condition that pregnant ladies can get called “preeclampsia,” which means I have crazy-high blood pressure, and if the baby doesn’t get out of me soon awful things could happen. I could have a seizure. Or explode. That’s not even the worst part. The worst part is that Dr. Addis is insisting we “call a mother” to set up some help f...or after we get home with the baby.
“You’ll be recovering from a major surgery; you’re going to need help,” Dr. Addis tells us as he’s writing down instructions to get to the hospital. “I’d offer to come over and help but I’m playing golf next week with one of my patients’ husbands.”
No, no, no. We don’t need any help. David and I are old; we can handle it. I don’t want any family members around those first few days we’re back home.MoreLess
