Day In The Life Of Marylyn

 

 

Monday Morning Marylyn wakes up just like every morning and starts the day, but little bobby soon complains about a tummy ache.

  After about an hour, Bobbys condition worsens and he is beginning to cry about his tummy.... Marylyn starts to get worried that it is more that just a tummy ache.

 After another half an hour it was time to load up the two kids and head to the local clinic.

 Upon arriving at the clinic it is clear that this was going to take a while. Marylyn had a lot of stuff to do today and she knows that it will not get done anymore.

 Marylyn walks into the clinic and waits for the receptionist to get off the phone. It takes a few minutes and when she gets off the phone, the receptionist Jane points her in the direction of the list and informs her it will be about a 2 hour wait. 

  Marylyn takes a seat and the two children head to the kids play area. She hates it when they play in there because she knows that it is a breeding ground for viruses, but with no other way to keep the kids occupied she let them play. She starts to feel uncomfortable in the full wait room and prays that her and little Sally wont come out sick.

  An hour had passed and the kids were starting to get restless and hungry. The toys were no longer keeping them occupied and marylyn knows that it there is still alot of time to wait. Every once in a while the doctor peeks around the corner to check the status of the room and brings patients back.

  Doctor Ross is constantly busy throughout his day. It is important for him to see as many patients as quick as possible. He hates having disgruntled patients in the waiting room and wishes there was a better way to manage her patient flow through the establishment. No-one should have to wait for so long in that horrid waiting room.

 Finally marylyn gets in to see the doctor after two and a half hours. She is agitated and the doctor assesses Bobby with a stomach flu. He prescribes him with a common antidote and after 10 min with the doctor Bobby and Sally are heading back to the car, and then home. 

 While the family has dinner Marylyn complains to her husband about the awful experience they had had at the clinic. He comments that Bobby looks a lot better though and it makes her feel like it was worth it, she just hopes that Sally wont come down with anything for a long time. She would be very happy if she never had to go back there again.
