Our regular UPS driver had to deliver my IV bags and medical supplies to my house every Thursday morning for over two years. Expedited first-stop delivery, refrigerated, cannot freeze, the whole gamut of special handling. I met him at our front door at 7:30 AM on Thursdays like clockwork, and he saw me with the IV infusion pump "albatross" around my neck and knew that I was not in good shape.
The doctors took me off the IV infusion at about the time that Amazon shifted from UPS to USPS for Prime shipping, so the driver did not have any stops here for a few months.
He was making a delivery for someone else on our dead end road one afternoon when I was coming home from work, and he stopped as I was getting out of my car to say how happy he was to see me alive. When he didn't see the Thursday IV deliveries, he assumed that I had passed away since it was supposed to be a lifetime IV treatment!!!
