On Friday we had an unusually exciting afternoon.
A sweet octogenarian waiting for her appointment suddenly developed chest pain and shortness of breath in the lobby.
Mary, knowing how good Pissy and I are at handling REAL medical emergencies, immediately called 911. I'd run over to the hospital for a minute, and so the staff got him to check her blood pressure and hold her hand until paramedics arrived.
By the time I returned paramedics were loading her onto a stretcher to go to ER.
She immediately grabbed my hand and said "Dr. Grumpy, I'm so glad to see you. Before I leave could you get me more samples of Nomohurtz? It seems to be helping."
The lady surely had already made her co-pay. So some samples should be the least she'd get out of this visit to your office.
