Doctor advice
Sometimes, in my many trips to the doctor, I think, "the medical care here is pretty good.". Then there are days like yesterday. I brought Sofia in to the doctor because her ear was still hurting. We were not able to see her regular doctor but I didn't care. I just wanted someone to look in her ear and tell me if it had another infection. The doctor we saw was very nice and spoke some English which is a bonus. I did have to question her doctoring though when she asked me, "have you been in the mountains?". I answered yes and she nodded her head and said, "yes that is why she has the pain. It is negative pressure and the clean air. She will be fine just keep her home for four days and do not go outside with her and if you have to go out then don't let her go out in the sun." I smiled and nodded and we headed on our way. Once we were outside and the sun was shining (which is remarkable in itself), Sofia said oh no I can't go in the sun. So I proceeded to tell her that it was fine if she went in the sun. Then had to continue with explaining that mommy and daddy decide if we will follow the doctors advice or not and that some doctors are behind the times in medicine. I'm not sure if she believed me or got tired of my ramblings but she let it go and didn't question her ability to be out in the sun.
