We are in Spring Break this week, and as further evidence of my tendency to forget to look at the calendar more than a week or so in advance (that’s if I’m lucky; many times i only look out a day or two), I neglected to schedule anything for Medical Monday.

Call it a symptom of my mental state.

While I think there’s a place for discussion here of all things health and wellness, it may be better for Medical Mondays to become a less regular occurrence — call it an occasional series. With our family’s sudden exposure to more aspects of the world of healthcare and chronic health issues, as well as emotional wellbeing, it makes sense to state for the record that these things are an important part of our lives and deserving of attention. Maybe that’s the intention of this series — trying to give these things more attention in my own life and have that intention reflected here.

Thank you for reading and being a part of this community. If you’ll excuse me now, I get to go have some vacation.
