Making a House Call
I am the son of a surgeon. I went with my dad to see an elderly patient who needed to have a cast removed. I was about nine and we were going to an assisted living facility to take of this lady’s cast off.
She couldn’t make it to the hospital herself on account of her being so old so he was kind of making a house call. He had a saw to remove the cast. It was actually pretty intimidating. But he touched it while it was on to show this little old lady that it wasn’t going to cut her.
Apparently, that demonstration hadn’t been enough. Upon him touching the saw to her cast, she started screaming like a banshee and freaking out. I was also pretty scared because my dad just kept going. When we got in the car to go home, he burst out laughing. I wasn’t as amused. StLightManifesto
