Last Check-up with Dr. Boe
__________________
Triz’s 3-year-old well-check up was her last check-up with Dr. Boe as her pediatrician. I must say, it’s a sad fact, because as I’ve been blogging about it here, Dr. Boe, my daughter’s pedia ever since she was born is truly one-of-a-kind! We’ve been going back and again to Bloomington Pediatrics and Allergy Clinic for Triz’s well check-up since she was 2 weeks old back in 2006 and last July 10th was our last hop in there so we said good-bye to the staff who accommodated us and to Dr. Boe especially who have been so good to us professionally and friendly-wise. He wished us good luck in our move and he said to call him anytime if we’ve got health concerns with Triz. He has been so vocal in complimenting me how much of an intuitive mom I am and he appreciated my initiative in exerting commonsense towards dealing with my own child’s health status. He said he’ll miss Triz’s very good development and we’ve expressed how grateful we are to him.
I was laughing within me to see the nurse checking Triz’s blood pressure for the first time. The fact that my baby is not so little anymore hit me home.
Of course, she’s got normal BP, like she has with everything else!
Dr. Boe said that Triz is one of the healthiest patients he has ever had and her cognitive development is excellent. He gave us a star-patient stuff like drawing book, pencil, and a mug and we’ll sure treasure them for as long as we could. I have yet to send him a Thank You note soon; I’ll wait till we’re settled in our new place. I’m sure I wouldn’t be able to find a good pedia like Dr. Boe but I wish we can find the closest. Or even better? Hmmm… We’ll see!
