Kind of Wish They'd Explained That . . .

In summary, the speaker will be featured in two local newspapers for an article about her doctor, who is being highlighted by the hospital. She agreed to have her picture taken during a consultation, but was surprised to find out she would be wearing a paper gown and discussing the female reproductive system. The picture will be published in both newspapers, leading to some humorous reactions from her friends and family. The speaker is not too concerned about the attention, as she has been in the paper before.

I was sharing my little story with an old friend/upcoming host last night. She asked me if she'd ever told me about what had happened when she was pregnant with the twins. That's when she told be about the time she visited the third-floor office of her OB/GYN while 9 months pregnant with twins. It seems a group of window-washers surprised her while she was, um, not particularly well clothed.


See, it isn't just me.

Yeah, but you had the choice. Why, oh why, would you get undressed in a room that had NO window coverings?

There was a room at the hospital where I used to work that was set aside for nursing moms to use the breast pump while at work and it had NO window coverings!! It was on the 4th floor and overlooked the woods, but there was an access door to the roof right beside the room. When maintenance had to get on the roof for something, they had to walk past this window. When I needed to use the room after my 2nd baby, I was the assistant to the director for Women's Services. She didn't want to buy shades until I asked her if she wanted to stand naked in that room and HOPE that maintenance didn't need to get on the roof. The next day I was allowed to order blinds for the window!

Unfortunately, she wasn't in labor, so she managed to get really embarrassed. She also got a bit of the paper from the exam table stuck between her cheeks when she tried to scurry off the table and into the changing area. The nurse had to help her remove it.

Oh that poor, poor lady. Nothing like adding insult to injury!!! She should get her delivery costs for free!!

And at the prices UPS and FedEx are charging these days, that would be substantial.

Oh, it had window coverings, but the drapes were open. Since they were on the third floor without any nearby buildings, she never thought to close them. Thankfully, the nurse closed them before removing the torn paper from her tushie. :p

Here it is!The infamous photo was in a special insert in today's paper.


One more thing they neglected to tell me: the article focusing on Dr. Murray is about perimenopause and menopause. :grumpy: I choose to believe that they chose me for the picture because they wanted to show that these are issues even for young, attractive women.

Hey, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. :p

DH says that it looks like the caption should be, "Hey, my eyes are up here, buddy!"

You wear paper so well!

"...discuss some health issues with the aid of a model."I thought YOU were the model?
 
  • #65
The shoulder pads are cute...I am so glad that they did not show the "model" he has in his hands! And Rae....I think the caption should read..."you SOB, this visit better be free, heck I should get free visits for the rest of my cranky menopausal life!!"
 
  • #66
Way to go Rae! I still think it's a great way to help other women out there realize they need to have a yearly check up!

At least the picture wasn't of you with your legs up in the air!

ROFLOL! I agree with your DH.

I clicked on this thread, looked at the photo, then was about to comment on the fact that he should be looking at your eyes...I looked down and saw this comment from Ann and started laughing even more!

I'm just glad that the picture doesn't make it patently obvious that I'm not wearing a bra.

Too bad you weren't wearing your official "post slut" t-shirt.

Is it just me, or does Dr. Bruce look like an Oompa-Loompa?

Now that you mention it...



it's just you.

Looks like a StarTrek reject.
 
  • #78
That's Deep Roy - he's 4'4" tall and has played a myriad of interesting roles in the movies. Never Star Trek, that I know of. He was the chief Oompa Loompa in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (he was all the Oompa Loompas, actually) and a delightfully weird character in Big Fish.And I still say Dr. Bruce looks like an Oompa Loompa.
 
  • #79
What sceen from Charlie is that pic from? I just remember the Oompa's from the sceen where we first meet them... by the river.

O.k. - fine, if it will make you happy, Dr. Bruce looks like an Oompa.
 
  • #80
Heck, I don't remember which scene - the guy was in almost all of them. Did you notice the WW logo on his chest? There must of been 200 of him rowing the boat on the chocolate river.

Dr. Bruce is actually Dr. William Bruce Murray. That makes him Bill Murray in my book. He does a dead-on Carl from Caddy Shack. He even appreciated my humor when I took a groundhog to the hospital when he performed my hysterectomy.

The article is about several doctors, including my own gynecologist, and will feature a picture of me during a consultation with my doctor.
