The black day has come.

For the last six months I have been working as a family doctor in Dresden.

There are many Ukrainians among my patients.

Today, for example, a young woman came in.

For example, Mrs. K.

I have no complaints, I just came to make an appointment, waited in line for 5 hours just to know that there is a family doctor in case of emergency.

While I was collecting her vegetative history, I found out that she had insomnia, no appetite, labile mood and chronic cystitis.

«But these are hardly complaints,» says Mrs K. "We are well fed, it is warm at home, and there is no noise anywhere.

Yes, she has all her limbs in place, she doesn't sleep in the trench and even went to Lviv last week with her child to meet her husband there.

That's why I have cystitis.

As our urology teacher used to say, «cystitis of lovers».

«But my cystitis is a problem for white people, I made cranberry juice, it will go away, and in general I feel good, this inflammation is like a memory.».
