Wait… and Wait

Ten hours waiting, they finally got seen,
By a doctor aged all of thirteen,
Said, “You need an x-ray.
Please come back Wednesday,
and try not to do much in between.”

This limerick may not make much sense on its own, but is the latest in a series. The others may be found here.

Divorced, grown/flown daughter. In life, I designed IT systems, taking a career break as a bicycle mechanic, until interrupted by a stroke in 2016, aged 48. As I convalesced, I combined the development of health-related apps with voluntary work, and began writing. After a stint working again in IT, I now write full-time, and use my blog space to let my hair down.
