Insert FEET
So today, I addressed the white haired, wrinkly, pleasantly plump woman sitting on the bed next to my blonde haired, smooth skinned, and thin patient as "grandma." I was immediately corrected and told this was "MOM." Oops. I think all would have been forgiven, but I then immediately asked if the white haired, and slightly less wrinkly and slightly less plump woman sitting next to "mom" was mom's sister. Nope, again. It was "mom's" other daughter. I think that's the first time I've been thankful this child was on isolation and I had meticulously gowned, gloved, and masked prior to entering!
