So it occurs to me that my home nurse is p. much Leonard Bones.
Nurse: Where the hell is your other sock? Pardon my French. But where the hell is your other sock?
Me: Er, not on my foot. I mean I was wearing it earlier but I just got out of bed for a nap and it was hot.
Nurse: So where's your sock? You know you're diabetic, right? That you almost lost you right foot? You trying to go for the left one, now? You need to wear at least a slipper-sock even in the house. Something with a hard sole is better.
Me: Okay, okay. I'll put socks on.
Nurse: I'll take it. It's better than nothing. Jesus, I'm still trying to figure out a way to get my diabetic patients to wear shoes in the shower.

I pretty much need to find a way to get in this guy's pants and have his babies. He has also given me the gem, "That surgery made you at risk for blood clots. If your leg feels sore and hot in one spot, you might have one. Lift your legs up in the air and stretch them out, then bend your feet up toward your body. If it hurts, call me. You might have a blood clot. Oh, and if it hurts - stop doing that. Otherwise you might dislodge it and KILL yourself."
