My Ex Is the Gynecologist
I clearly saw him write, "Possible pregnancy. Period delayed. No break between relationships and already pregnant with someone else's child."
Hold on… Was that even a proper medical note?
A beat later, he asked, "Do you have a boyfriend?"
It was a standard gynecology question. Any time a patient had period problems, the doctor would ask about it.
But before I could speak, my mom jumped in. "Yes, she does! And they're doing great. They're absolutely smitten with each other!"
"Have you taken a pregnancy test?" Patrick asked again.
"Not yet," my mom answered immediately. "The moment I realized her period was late, I rushed her here. Appointments these days are nearly impossible to get."
