THIS FAT OLD LADY IS SO INSULTED

Had my appointment at UofM with a hematologist regarding my ITP (immune thrombocytopenia purpura).  Read the after-visit Notes:

“Well-developed well-nourished [I’m guessing well-developed/well-nourished simply means “fat” and I have no argument with that] female who appears her stated age …”

WHAT????????????????????????

I DO NOT LOOK LIKE I’M 71!!!!!!!!!!

71 IS OLD!!!!!!!!!!!!

RUDE.

(Okay, maybe the skin on my neck looks 71 but THAT’S IT)

STILL, JUST FUCKING RUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • You tell that child what my dad used to say to sassy kids: Show some respect kid, I got hemorrhoids older than you!

  1. You gave me my laugh of the day. I had my first “…appears stated age” at 60-something; by now,at 76, I’m used to it…BUT IT STILL SOUNDS LIKE THEY’RE SAYING I LOOK OLD! It’s not pretty , but it’s what happens to ladies (and for all I know, gents) of a certain age. File it under “what do THEY know?”

  2. Apparently they do it to the gents as well. When I told my husband about it, he laughed and said, “I know, right?”
