Went for a gyno appointment to get a referral for surgery. I had 1000000 questions and the lady doctor I had had micro expressions and behaviours (some not so subtle) that just made me feel foolish for questions that were really important to me.
I was sick, on my period, exhausted, and at some point I got really teary. She went to grab a fellow doc/surgeon to chat to me who would be referring me, I composed myself, and he came in.
I commented on his id badge clip that had a grumpy cat cartoon on it with a coffee mug that said, NOPE, and he immediately revealed the best dry humour and sweet personality ever.
"Oh yeah, thanks. gift from the wife. Said its meant to be me. Idk what she meant by that (flattest grumpy resting bitch face ever). Im a delight to be savoured.
"What cat or dog do you think you are? She (pointing to my original doc in the corner) is definitely a terrier."
He then made jokes about his messy hand drawn diagram of the reproductive system as he explained and that his neices thought it was a bunny playing golf when they asked him to "draw anything".
When he recommended the meds he commented on how they effected periods with, "I took them a year ago, haven't had a period since," (is a cis male).
He joked that the different procedures to halt growths boil down to, "I can turn you into a man, a pregnant woman, or an old lady, or at least trick your body into thinking its now one of those. Side effects of option A also include thinking youre right all the time, but youre a teacher so that will either not change or you'll develop a god complex--"
Within ten minutes this guy had me giggling and cackling over a scary discussion. It was awesome.
Much love to Doctor Grumpy Cat 😾 ❤️
