Life in private practice...in Maine

a friend of mine sent this email today

Hey girls, I am having a hell of a week. Hoping that you all can help me with this situation. I have a puppy here with a fractured femoral head. Surgery is scheduled for tomorrow. Usually we would do a fentanyl patch, an NSAID to go home. The issue is that the man in the house just got out of jail for drug trafficking a week ago. The woman was arrested about a month ago for huffing hairspray while driving with small children in the car. I am not making this up. So would you guys dispense controlled drugs to these people? What about tramadol? I have not used in a dog this small (16 lbs). Hope you are doing well.

To me it doesn't seem such a complicated situation. I'd stick w/ the fentanyl patch and NSAID.

Not sure how you get this info on your clients though.

I got an email this morning about the apt. I was going to see today. Someone put down money already. It sucks because I thought it was going to be 'the one' and I contacted the girl about it right away when she posted it but she was on vacation at the time and asked if I could see it Tuesday afternoon but I said No because I had class and then turns out I didn't have class because MOnday was a holiday and yesterday we were on Monday class schedule. Wish I would have put this all together and contacted her back to say I could come yesterday. Now I have no leads and the search I once thought was promising seems very hopeless.

Maybe it's a sign that I'm supposed to leave Boston. Postdoc isn't going well, ruined relationship w/ roomies, nowhere to live...got nothing, but I also have no where to go.

Hip hop class Saturday morning??
