While the kids watched a movie with Gommie and Pop napped on the couch, Mama and I went to my ENT (ear, nose, and throat) doctor's appointment about the sore throat I've had for two months. And I heard a word that I haven't heard since the kids were babies: reflux. I have reflux, probably initially aggravated by, you guessed it, my allergy to NSAIDs.
Or because I'm 40.
This doctor always chalks things up to being 40, like my sense a year or so ago that I was losing my hearing a bit. Yep, probably, but not below acceptable standards. It happens when you're, you guessed it, 40.
Dad says try being 70.
And when he gets to 90 the Doc says 'Oh dear, you again!'
