Yesterday before sundown, Ate Malou (my neighbor in her 50s)
asked me to verify her bed-ridden mother’s blood pressure because the old woman
was shaking.
I went to see the patient free of charge (my standard for my
neighbors) and reminded Ate Malou about sublingual anti-hypertensive meds
before leaving.
People looked at me as I walked up and down the street
hooked to an IV line (which I inserted myself because of LBM).
It was a rare sight for all of us.

Living alone made me learn to insert IV lines to myself without any external help.
