Come back in a year

Bloods back. Unremarkable, she said, which is a word I had never once heard applied to me.

A1c down, liver enzymes improved.

Three years of results side by side. A trend rather than a moment, which is apparently the only thing worth looking at.

Everything stable. She said come back in a year. I have never had a come-back-in-a-year before.

A1c down. I looked at the number for a long time and then rang my mother, which surprised us both.

À la prochaine.
