No!<br /><br />Here you have a patient so terrified of overstepping the bounds he thinks exist that he will not even attempt to contradict Dr. Imed by accident.<br /><br />The "I-am-God" attitude of medicine, which for some reason never took root with Dr. Grumpy, strikes once more.<br /><br />Go look for the note. Read it. Tell Mr. Papyrus what it said and what you are going to do to him. Watch him reach for his insurance card and checkbook.<br /><br />stay safe.skidmarknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-59813249720059151072010-09-29T11:37:41.423-04:002010-09-29T11:37:41.423-04:00Careful-the memory loss is contagious.Careful-the memory loss is contagious.Cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-70508884395781264522010-09-29T09:04:52.254-04:002010-09-29T09:04:52.254-04:00I forgot what I did.I forgot what I did.Grumpy, M.D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09858110332436246760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-41244976786934656162010-09-29T09:03:10.111-04:002010-09-29T09:03:10.111-04:00So, do you fix his memory and then have him come b...So, do you fix his memory and then have him come back when he remembers his pain?<br /><br />Or should we allow him to be amnestic about his pain as a simple human courtesy?The Motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15157821003454766570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-44172912824254035062010-09-29T08:54:56.783-04:002010-09-29T08:54:56.783-04:00He was so obsessed with me finding the papers the ...He was so obsessed with me finding the papers the other doc sent me, it seemed like a good name.Grumpy, M.D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09858110332436246760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-4040454181130323902010-09-29T08:53:26.101-04:002010-09-29T08:53:26.101-04:00Mr. Papyrus. *snerk*Mr. Papyrus. *snerk*amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06932977941504816230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-18954926587839229932010-09-29T08:00:36.423-04:002010-09-29T08:00:36.423-04:00I heard they were going to be combining Viagra wit...I heard they were going to be combining Viagra with Ginseng....<br /><br />So that men could remember what the F*#! they were doing....staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08872800621811343464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-15001899275597275742010-09-29T07:03:39.266-04:002010-09-29T07:03:39.266-04:00...and while you are looking for that note, can I ......and while you are looking for that note, can I have a hamburger?
