Moins de Doute
ess doubt. That is what I have been feeling since my conversation with Sam last week. I reached her on Wednesday when I was in Atlanta for the ACIP meeting. We talked about the MRI of my uterus. It is really funny how two people talking about the same thing can be on different pages. [...]
Happy to See Me
om wanted me to come back to LA. I was surprised when both Joe (my stepfather) and Jade told me this. Mom as been doing better since her god-awful sepsis/atrial flutter/damaged lungs episode that started back in September. A few weeks ago, it seemed that we were about to lose her. Now I can’t say [...]

It dawned on me that I have been fooling myself to this point. This cycle cannot possibly work. [...]
A Place To Stay
had a great weekend at home, something I really needed. Mason came over on Saturday and we had a good time together. I really get the feeling that he is embracing recovery this time. He keeps telling me how important it is that he does it for himself, and not mostly for me, like in [...]
Should I Buy This?

Yet this new one gets rave reviews: The Litter Robot It’s kind of funky looking but supposedly works like a dream. For $300 it [...]
The Tickets Have Arrived!

A Foreskin is not a Birth Defect
am here at the AAP meeting in DC with about 5 million pediatricians. So as I am walking to the convention center for the meeting, I see protesters in the distance. I’m saying to myself, we’re a bunch of pediatricians, baby docs for goodness sake. What the heck is there to protest at our convention? [...]
