TW for (+) #medical talk.
I’ve been through a hell of a week. I won’t share any further details atm, but I had to go get bloodwork in the community today.
The phlebotomist saw my arms and immediately realized I’d been through it. Multiple IVs and other pokes. He was so kind, gentle, and patient with me. Quickly, he did a very gentle poke… and I thanked him for using a butterfly needle. He replied, “I can see you’ve been through so much, of course!”
That kindness nearly brought me to tears.
