B187. Ear Wash

I went to the dr. this morning for an ear wash. The nurse was very apologetic for wetting much more of me than my ears. I repeatedly assured her that getting wet didn't bother me in the least. I just wanted to hear again.

Sometimes in the past, this process has been painful, or, almost always, uncomfortable. After the nurse finished, as she continued to apologize for wetting my clothes, I sincerely thanked her and told her this was my most pleasant ear washing experience ever. Her expression changed dramatically. With a broad smile, she said, "Really? This was my first time."

Thank you, God, that I was my best self today, and you could use me to give a new nurse the confidence she deserves!
