New Dialysis Time

I just got a call from the dialysis social worker. She also seems to manage the dialysis center. Due to COVID-19, they need to clear out an isolation ward even though there are no cases yet. At the dialysis clinic, we have four “pods” with different number of dialysis chairs. D-pod is the smallest with four chairs, and they’re making it the COVID-19 area. To do so, they need to shuffle the schedule around. Currently I am in B-pod during second shirt. Since I drive myself, she thought I would be more flexible. I told her I didn’t care what time I have to go in so starting next week, I need to be there by 5:30 am. Since I’m not getting any sleep anyway, this way I can get it over with and maybe even go to work or other appointments on Tuesdays and Thursdays. And whenever we get out of quarantine, I can have Saturday lunches again. Yay!
