Her procedure went better than expected though, so that was a relief.
That is great news and UI am sure that she appreciates you being there with her. Must be scary and create anxiety for her also.
and pregnant women, another thing Park Slope is known for
:D Why?
The people are all happy, friendly, and oddly healthy looking, and the dogs are ecstatically happy!
Why are they healthy looking - is it that they get out more with their dogs do you think? And it is great to see happy dogs.
Makes me think humans could make better choices, more personal choices, regarding whose company they want to keep.
And I wonder if it is the same for dogs, where the choices they make determine a lot of their behavior.
Here, dogs are allowed off-leash in some circumstances, but in general, the dogs are well behaved. Finns are outdoorsy people and since the dogs have to be inside dogs, they tend to train them relatively well. Most are not an issue, but sometimes people are getting dogs they can't handle.
Why are there so many pregnant women? Park Slope has many schools, both private and public, playgrounds all over the place, a beautiful park, children's shops, pet stores, ice creams shops, after school programs, children's art services... It really is a great place to raise kids. And dogs.
Perhaps happiness promotes health. It makes sense to me. But it sure doesn't hurt that so many of them take a walk in a gorgeous park most mornings. I immediately noticed that there is very little obesity in that neighborhood. Nearly everyone looks pleasant and fit.
My daughter has had so many colonoscopies that they are all in a day for her. I was far more nervous about it than she was, especially since the doctor was going to try to stretch a stricture while in there. This was successful and has ameliorated her constant state of nauseous. I myself will never do one again - once was quite enough, thank you. Sadistic I try not to do.
