Ren’s appointment for flu vaccine gone wrong!

Yesterday, Ren was scheduled for his influenza vaccine. I called for an appointment 2 days ago to avoid the hassle of waiting. The doctor’s assistant confirmed our schedule a day before so I taught everything will happen smoothly.

This immunization of Ren was not done by his pediatrician since I got a voucher which is 50% off of the regular price for this influenza or flu vaccine (only P750 from the original price of P1,600). We woke up early yesterday to prepare for our trip. The place is not hard to reach, but since it’s Saturday few people are going to Makati (the clinic is located around that area) the passenger jeep needs to be filled up first before it will begin the trip. This is one of the disadvantage if you don’t have your own car.

When we reached the clinic the doctor is not there yet. Ren being the hyper boy that he is, can’t find anything to do while waiting. He is fascinated with cars and it’s a good thing there is a car magazine in the shelves. While he browsed through the magazine I saw this new design of KIA Picanto.

Since I want to have our own car but because we don’t need it that much and we still don’t have budget to buy one, I am just contented to look at cars whether at the streets or in magazines. When I saw a car that I like, I add it in my wishlist that is why I am familiar with the KIA Picanto’s old design.

The new design of KIA Picanto is improved than the old one. It looks like a preschooler now from being a baby when it first came out.

Well maybe next year or so we will have one, I just need to prioritize some things first and besides, I still don’t know how to drive and repair a car.

Anyway, back to the immunization schedule, we were already waiting for almost an hour when the nurse called me privately and told that the Doctor will not make it. It is because an unexpected thing happened to one of his patient at the other hospital and that he said he can’t leave him.

I was mad when I heard it since like my son, I also don’t like waiting. But when I walked out the clinic I realized that what if I am the patient of the doctor at the other hospital? I tried to put my shoes in his situation so after a few minutes my hotheadedness cooled down and went ahead to our next destination smiling.

what ever happens in life we should always remember to live life to the fullest
