Lovable



17.01.2011

After several days of bed rest
I went for my x ray and test today morning. inside the x ray room there was this young chap who handles the machines. He adjusted me on the bed first feeling the pelvic bones and the ribs.
I had to change into the hospital clothes and lie down on the cold metal bed. The boy adjusted the machines took a few shots of me- fully straight on my back and a few in foetal position

he went and checked if the shots had come right. he came back and...

x ray boy: apnar ki konodin kono operation hoyechilo? ( did you ever get operated?)
me: na( no)

his face tells me he doesnt like the answer
he checks again and comes back

x ray boy: apnar uterus e konodin kono prob hoyechilo ( did you ever have a problem in your uterus?)
me: na...thank god.. na..god forbid

he goes ....comes back

x ray boy: apnar kono din kono pregnancy tey kichu prob hoyechilo?( did you ever have a problem when you were pregnant?)
me: ota akhono amar jibone chance payeni ( pregnancy never got a chance)

x ray boy: tahole apnar x ray te akta kalo spot asche kyano? ( then why is there a black spot in your x rays)

I almost begin to get getting worried

x ray boy: apnar inner e kono metal er tukro achey? ( do you have a piece of metal in your inners)

I GRINNN
a big grin
YES i say

On a tiny metal bracket stitched onto my panty was written 'lovable'
