Bee Happy!

Hello Everyone, hoping all is well with you and that your day is good. 
Very windy up here in the North, but a fab drying day, washing all out and brought in dry, as for ironing......well, sometime soon.  Teallach absolutely hates when I set the ironing board up as it makes the most awful noise and he gets frightened, so that's my excuse for now.

Thank you so much for you lovely comments on my last card, I do appreciate them all.

I mentioned in a previous post that I had a story to tell regarding my surgery, that wasn't as funny as my friend's tale. I was sent to the Hospital Diabetic nurse to help me manage my BG which I had been struggling with for a while, and she tweaked my insulin and , and suggested finer needles to help with absorption. So this meant she had to send a letter to my surgery to have my prescription changed. Meanwhile I had ordered more insulin, and when I went to pick it up at the pharmacy, it wasn't there. So, wondering if I had indeed ordered it, I tried to check my medication history on the surgery website, and as they have changed their system, I couldn't find it. No worries, I just phoned and was told that I no longer was to have insulin!!!  The young lady, told me that the hospital nurse had taken me off it, not true, I replied, all I have is new needles. So why would I have new needles and no insulin pen to fit them on to.  Well we did wonder and checked with the doctor who was doing the repeat prescriptions  and she said, and she said that was quite right....no insulin.  So I asked her to read out the hospital nurse's letter and pointed out that no where did it say I was to come off insulin, no right enough said the lady, I can see what you mean. Now by this time I could feel the blood pressure rising and said that this is a mistake and it needs sorting out pretty quickly. Oh well, we'll see  if the doctor can look at this tomorrow.... yes friends I lost it!! and further more she said if the doctor okays it you could come to the surgery tomorrow and pick up the prescription.  I told her that a formal complaint would be going in and put the phone down. I thought I will phone back when I've calmed down. Anyway, five minutes or so later the phone rings and it's one of the main doctors, who can't for the life of him understand why this other doctor acted as she did, of course you can't come off insulin. He was absolutely furious that I had to go through this upset, and he sorted all there and then, would fax the script down to the pharmacy and it would be there by the afternoon, and he was going to investigate with the other doctor this issue.  It wan't only this mistake that concerned me, but what I it was someone who couldn't deal with this mistake, an elderly, disabled or suchlike person, it would have caused them no end of stress. The doctor quite agreed. 

A couple of days later the Practice Managed phoned, to apologise for the way his staff handled it all and felt there was a lack of common sense from the lady who was dealing with it,  Anyway, it all got sorted out, but I was pretty stressed by the whole thing, it's not the first mistake that this surgery had made, but thankfully I am able to stand my ground when I feel things are not right, and shout out to the right people, not everyone would feel they could, and of  course we have all been brought up to think doctors are omniscient,  ...me.. well no I question everything.
So, there's my tale, long winded so I'm sorry, but good on you if you are still here.

On to my card;

This is made with a lovely little Dovecraft set called Bee Happy, the paper is also from the same paper pad, I've just added a little colour and some SU sequins. It's a lovely little set and the selection of papers is beautiful.

Well, it's been a long post so I will end here and give you a rest. Take care everyone and see you soon,
