  3. all righty then....better just treat the immediate problem and send this patient on his/her way....before the rest of the story starts to emerge and you all feel like you are on Geraldo!

  4. I think Anonymous is right, the / should be "of".

  5. Ah, the ethical and oedipal question about whether someone should date their transgendered child.

  6. I'm guessing Chris is the boyfriend of the female patient's mother.

  7. Maybe the patient's boyfriend and daughter are both named Chris? Maybe the daughter and her boyfriend are both named Chris? I know two (heterosexual) couples who have the same first name (Carol/Carol and Bryn/Bryn). Maybe it's easier just to write one name for both :)
