Yesterday, I went to the hospital with my DS. I happened to be dressed smartly and have a full face of make up on. This is relatively unusual as I am a SAHM, and my uniform is jeans, jumpers and boots.
Usually at the hospital I am not listened to, I am talked over, I am patronised. Yesterday, they couldn't have been better. I was taken seriously, the consultant listened to what I said, I was told I had a good knowledge of the condition we were talking about (I did my research, that's why).
I was really pissed off that wearing make up (or maybe looking like I had come from the office) seems to make such a difference. What utter crap.
