RE: Our journey with a neck injury Pt. 3 - The Present

in #story7 years ago

When you said reading, I thought "no way". I don't have them often and I'm sure not as badly as my husband, but when I do have one, I just want to go to a dark, quiet room. ERs are bright and noisy. I can't imagine the agony in which she must have passed her time.

Sort:  

I am so sorry, sarcasm doesn't come through when it's written. After being around my wife with a migraine, I have never had one, there is no way I believe this lady was having a migraine. I don't know if she was feeding a drug addiction of some kind or what but I can't believe she was able to drive, sit in the ER, and read with a migraine. When my wife has one, even our dogs can sense it and know to be quiet.

Ah, I see it now. No worries. It's unfortunate that pain isn't a more tangible symptom from the outside. A lot of fraud could be avoided if it were; although after seeing all the pain my husband has gone through, I think it's pretty easy to see when someone really is in pain and when someone may not have the kind of pain they claim to have.
