I found out Nurse Kay didn't call the wrong person afterall. She just gave ME the wrong set of bad news. Apparently I was to be called as well, with "less life-altering" bad news. I wonder if I should laugh about how it all played out. I mean, I'm happy I wasn't the REAL first person she called... but I'm not all too thrilled to be where I am. I guess it really could be worse. I'll find out Monday.

Note to self: Fingerprint!
