Minor Annoyance at the Surgeon Today

SBMBride406

This is stupid to complain about, considering the circumstances, but the plastic surgeon said something really irritating today. We were talking about Marino's medical history and I said he was 8 weeks premature. The dr said, "well, really he was 4 weeks premature, since 36 weeks is full-term." What kind of nonsense is that? 1st of all, 36 weeks is not full term, and even if we're talking about 37 weeks, his logical is still ridiculous. I just ignored the comment, since it was irrelevant to the situation (especially since Marino is a healthy 14 month old).

I certainly hope his knowlege in plastics is better than it is in neonatology. Good luck with everything. I hope that you & Marino are on the mend!
