As a child my pediatrician was Dr. Fine, who got me thru tonsillitis and 65 years later, my urologist is Dr. Howard who diagnosed and got me past my prostrate cancer. I just now made the name connections.
I worked with a guy who when things went wrong had a unique way of listing the reasons. He would start with #1 – yada yada, B – blah blah blah and finish with last of all.
No pills for me. This was in the late 50’s and my first experience with anesthesia. Got lots of ice cream after the surgery!
