My doctor told me that on Thursday she will be dressed as Alice in Wonderland. It’s Halloween and apparently all the doctors will be dressed as a storybook character. It seems a bit bizarre that someone actually assigned the doctors a role for the day. It didn’t sound as if my doctor had any choice. She does already have the long blond hair. “It’s an easy one,” she says, “All I need is a blue dress.” I decided not to mention the white pinafore which I thought might just be essential to complete the outfit. Perhaps she thinks her lab coat will be sufficient. I’m suddenly glad I am there to meet with her on Tuesday and not Thursday. I already feel like I am falling down a rabbit hole of a new medical muddle. I wouldn’t want my doctor to look at my last ultrasound results only to say, “Curiouser, and curiouser.”
