What is a thing someone said or did that helped you or made you feel good? And did you ever thanked that person?

I’m currently dealing with 4 herniated discs, 3 or 4 bulging discs and something else going on in my neck. Two days ago I had to see a nurse practitioner about some gut issues. I was at the office to talk about those issues but the nurse had looked over my records to see the spinal problems. She said that I must be dealing with a lot of pain. That was the first time one of my practitioners actually said something about that. It just kind of validated my current situation. It helped.

I suppose that they do their jobs. I just feel it would make patients feel a bit more comfortable if clinicians were more human. It doesn’t take much effort to ask how a person is doing. As a mental health therapist and a school teacher for a long time it didn’t take much to make a kid feel a bit better with a smile or something. We are all under time limits these days but being human can help.

Hardware for reading comics

I use an iPad mini. The sixth generation one is small and bright. I have Panels from the App Store and have all my comics in OneDrive. I did have a Surface Go so I understand the weight thing a bit. Panels works really well. I’ve had other readers and this one stands out.
