The doctor was a half hour late in arriving after completing rounds. Upon entering the examination room, he immediately started speaking French, then explaining how I should respond to him in French (and really I should get one of those little French maid costumes and scare that him to death (by forcing him to wear it). Then we discussed how upbeat I am because I am incredibly upbeat; how much fun he has when I am in his office by comparison to the other grumpy, cancery, dying patients.
He asked me how I was doing? I told him I have no pains though I did have a gain, and hoped the gain was the weight of my shoes. Alas.
I guess he's not ready to have an affair with me (and fly me to his villa in Rome) because my next appointment isn't scheduled until October. His actual words, "Any sooner and they get suspicious." Dammit.I'm not sure he has the first clue what he's missing.

Oh lord, that picture made me snort!
You are so right! He does NOT know what he is missing. The time of his life, I'd suspect! Glad things are going well and you do not have to return for an exam until the fall! Hooray for you!!!

Darling, darling picture! And he hasn't a clue....
I used to get pelvic ultrasounds (affectionately known as "the probe") but that stopped once they took my uterus out. I once suggested to the technican that she could at least "put a battery in that thing", but she didn't seem to enjoy my unique sense of humor. Oddly, I kind of miss it...
Love this Post.
a French speaking gyn/onc with a place in Rome?? oo lal la!!
this is too funny - you make me fall about laughing. God knows what you get up to at your appointments!! :o)

OK, so I DID snort at the picture. Only you could make me laugh about a gyno-oncologist appt.
I thought his villa was in Paris?
Is that some kind of blow up doll in the photo with you and Hannah? Is that what the GYN docs are giving away in their offices now-a-days? Must be the new health care bill.
I heart this post (and the picture).
You crack me up.
I'd love to see you force that doctor to wear the french maid's costume!
That is not a blowup doll. That's the dollhead I bought for Hannah from the Goodwill for 2 bucks. We already decorated her with all sorts of paint and "makeup". She's stunning! You are jealous.
My son thought she was a blow up doll too.
Your son and I are really twisted :-)
Oh, is she free Saturday evening?
I dunno...an affair w/your gyno? (I'm wearing the same expression as Hannah.)
Maybe if he spoke Italian & looked exactly like Adrian Brody. Even then...
lol! love your humor!
great appointment, congrats!
Laughing at Dr. J's comments! Yeah, I'm so happy to hear you won't be going back until October, although I'm still very sad for you that you won't be able to see doc in the french maid costume.
oooh I have ff miles.
shall we just fly ourselves to the villa?
This is a great post but the very best part is that you do not have to return to that French guy until October - yay!! Unless you have an affair with him, that is. In which case, the sooner the better.
I adore that picture of you and Hannah!
By the way, I forgot to say congrats on the new car.
His loss, baby! Hi, I'm new here :) You seem funny so I'll probably stick around if that's cool...
Also, that picture is very awesome.
I get the same "You're so upbeat" from my oncologist. I think he says this to all the girls, to make sure we are upbeat around him. You know, if they can't stand sad, mad women, they're in the wrong line of work. (Breast cancer 1997)
