I am ready to enjoy perfect health.

Health keeps its own schedule, and a fair amount of it was settled by genetics before you had any say. Readiness is the part that sits on your side of the table.

It looks like the appointment finally booked after eight months of meaning to. Like saying the symptom out loud to the doctor instead of downplaying it because you're embarrassed.

Being ready means you'd accept good health if it were handed to you — that you'd change whatever you'd have to change to keep it. Plenty of people aren't. That's a real thing to have.
