The manager of the facility that operates the homeless clinic (for which I provide medical care under contract) got sacked! He was the only person standing in the way of a contract renewal with our health organization. Now that he's gone, the contract will probably be re-signed and I can stay here with my patients.
This is great news!
Thank you to all of the Loungers who stepped in with comfort and encouragement when all seemed lost.
I love you all...
Cautiously optimistic - I may not be losing the homeless clinic after all!

Finally: a Monday that doesn't make me want to try to tunnel out of the clinic.
And make a break for it like Steve McQueen in The Great Escape.
So far, it's been a pretty good day.

My authorization is: BECAUSE I SAID SO!...
Just do the insurance stuff, and let me do the medical stuff, thank you very much!...
I'm so sick and tired of insurance companies requiring prior authorization for medication refills.

I've hit a rough patch at work.
I don't need vibes or anything. But if you're a friend, please chime in and say 'hi'.
Thank you...
I love you all...
