This is why I'm not even trying to persuade you to go to get sorted. If you really want to get sorted, you will make it happen and find a way to get to the hospital. And if you don't want to, you won't. Simples! Don't want to sound harsh but don't have the energy to get frustrated with you

Going to hang out laundry and have a nap and take a pic of the next area I'm going to tackle
