I had made the mistake of watching doctor shows on TV with him and he had probably heard my wife and I describe the challenges of my doctor lifestyle at times over dinner. For the most part, he seemed oblivious and liked the things that most young boys at that age do: sports, jungle gyms, mud, and bicycles, but he had never seen his Dad at work. So the day came when my wife was doing errands and stopped by the hospital with the kids to drop off my pager which I had inadvertently left at home. As timing would have it, I had just scrubbed in a case, so she was kind enough to bring the pager to the electrophysiology lab control room where the technicians could retrieve it for me. My son, realizing how close he was to my workplace asked within earshot...

When it comes up, tensions do, too. But however you feel about Sunday’s Congressional vote, be grateful you don’t have these kids’ health problems: Post from: BlissTree (Source: Breastfeeding 1-2-3) Breastfeeding 1-2-3 blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=3395089 Tue, 23 Mar 2010 12:35:40 +0100 3395089 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=2981244&cid=t_201742_129_f&fid=36035&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.everydayhealth.com%2Fblog%2Flife-with-chronic-pain%2Fa-lousy-day-with-an-irritable-bowel-flare%2F Where are the words to describe a day like this? Rarely short on words, I find it’s more a matter of propriety, society and sobriety. No, it’s not that kind of sobriety. If you have IBS and you allow any alcohol to go “over the gums and into the tum,” then you will quickly learn it’s like swallowing battery acid. This kind of sobriety is the type I often battle because I’m a natural born smart ass. I use humor like some people use Kleenex; to cope, to wipe away problems and to get through the day.  As always I strive to find a way to say it without being too insensitive while displaying the correct amount of respect for others who suffer IBS. To be honest with all of you and I do try to be; I usually just let my words, driven by my thoughts and experiences, well, “just rip.�...

Back in the sixties that was a scary prospect, involving a dark booth, hell’s fire and spilling your guts to a shadow behind a screen. The only thing my seven-year-old self could come up with to confess was the time I stole a fancy little brush from Joyce Weber, my friend from down the street. I coveted that pink and blue plastic brush. My mom had already marched me over to Joyce’s house to hand the brush back and apologize. What more penance could there possibly be? Seven ways to apologize: Don’t get defensive and be all, “I don’t have anything to apologize for!” Think about it. On your knees, groveling. Usually reserved for extreme transgressions like an affair...

Because it would be a shame if Leavitt’s misleading and erroneous claims were disappeared.
