me: Scheduling, how can I help you?
pt: I need a holter monitor. It's for 48 hours.
me: Okay, well the next available is September 8th at 11am. Does that day work for you?
pt: No, now you gotta remember I just got surgery and have a hard time getting up in the morning. I can't do that.
me: ...um, well I was not aware that you had a surgery. You did not mention that.
pt: I just mentioned it, so you gotta remember.
me: So then what are you looking for?
pt: I'm not going to be able to get out of bed. I need an appointment at the end of September.
me: How about September 28?
pt: I should be able to get out of bed by then, don't you think? Let's do it. And how long is 48 hours?
me: Is that a serious question?
pt: Yes! How long is 48 hours? That's 4 days, right?
