Flashbacks

This morning I went to see a new dermatologist and as I drove into his office parking lot, I realized that his building is located across from the Florida Hospital.

As I drove between both buildings and saw signs pointing in the direction of the Emergency Room, I had flashbacks of SO many ER's and hospitals that I drove my husband to, and spent a lot of time in.

From January until the beginning of April we had spent time in Overlook Medical Center, the Atlantic Rehabilitation Institute, Morristown Memorial Hospital (twice), and Valley Hospital (three times).

While I don't live with the negative memories every day, like I used to, a flashback can hit me hard and make me a little shaky.

But then I clear my head, refocus my vision, and realize that I am not living that any longer.

Those memories are from the past.....

I am NOW just walking in to see the dermatologist for something minor.
