Get in!
Here's a music video.
Remember
Polite Requests?
Well, yesterday at mum's nursing home, the nurse in charge called my name. She sounded rather stern, so I thought that I was going to get a slapped wrist for talking too loudly
again
(as I do, because I'm a bit deaf). But no!
She said that I hadn't done anything wrong. She wanted to talk about mum's Vitamin D blood test result. My eyes lit up. She said that the result had been "temporarily mislaid" (whatever
that
means), but that they had now found it and it was "normal" at 98nmol/L (RR 50-200nmol/L). Divide by 2.5 to convert into ng/mL. I said that I already knew this as I had spoken to Dr F**'s secretary.
She then said with a smirk "Dr F** knows what you're like (I also smirked) and has agreed that mum can have a serum Vitamin D level of around 125nmol/L. He said to buy some of
this
." She handed me a piece of paper with the word "cholecalciferol" written on it.
What should have happened:
I put my left hand into my right inside jacket pocket and whipped out a tub of
Healthy Origins, Vitamin D3, 5,000 IU, 360 Softgels (use discount code NIG935 to get $5 off the first order. Standard shipping $4)
with flair and panache.
What actually happened:
The pot snagged on something and I had to tug on it for about five seconds to get it out.
I then handed the pot to the nurse and told her to get on with it. Job done!
