Ack… Ack, Ack… Ack, Ack, Ack. Wheeeeeeeeze. Whistle.

.
I saw the Doctor and
she saw me
she poked and prodded
listened and frowned
and told me at last
I have Bronchitis with Wheezing.
Now I thought just saying I had Bronchitis
would have been sufficient.
But apparently sound effects count.
That being so
I think the diagnosis should have been:
Bronchitis with Wheezing and Whistling and Gurgling and Almost Inaudible High-Pitched Dog Whistling and End-Of-Life Gasping.
You know what that means, don’t you?
I am a walking Sound Effect.
Need a waterfall? Yep, that’s me! PhlegmHawk. PhlegmHawk.
Need your dog called? I gotcha BarkBarkBarking covered.
Need it to sound like someone’s taking their last gasp? Eeeeeeeeeep…
Need birds scared away? Oh-croaking-kay! Caw, Caw, Caw,
Need a machine-gun threatening the peace of the neighborhood? Ack… Ack, Ack… Ack, Ack, Ack.
Oh yeah, one more thing….
Doctor Lady was also happy to report
Strep Screen was negative
but…. but….
ARGH!
I also have Sinusitis, Sore Throat, Bronchospasm.
AND I am also a PND [a post-nasal drip]– – yeah, I thought that was a pretty rude thing to call me too.
