He would later share that as he was writing her prescriptions, and through his peripheral vision, that in the time it takes to swallow a pill, she reached into her purse once again, pulled out the .38 caliber pistol, placed it against her temple, and with her thin, bony finger, pulled the trigger.
A collection of short, very short, and not-so-short, stories inspired by the patients of a seasoned Mississippi Coast physician, that will evoke an emotion of some kind upon their reading. In here you'll read about Rick's discharge, the greed-driven killing of a matriarch, EMTs summoned to a sex-scene, a hard-headed Santa Claus story, a golfer's demise at the hands of his wife. Also, an unusual, and unwanted, Christmas gift from a boyfriend, the absurdity of a social construct, an old lady who has no time for cancer, the consequences of procrastination and many others. As an onlooker in the exam room, you'll wonder why some people make certain decisions counterproductive to their general health. You'll get an inside peek at how a doctor thinks. You might reaffirm the current decisions you've adopted in maintaining your general health. Not only will you get educated and informed, you will definitely be entertained.Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
