I just finished The Intuitive Advisor: A Psychic Doctor Teaches You How to Solve Your Most Pressing Health Problems and read this quote which I think can be very important: In the end, I think it’s part of the mystery of life that we’re each dealt a genetic “poker hand.” Some of us get crappy [...]

I wrote the other day about getting Shingles just before the Thanksgiving Holiday. I may not be happy to have a major illness. I hated canceling patients just before the holiday, but I have to acknowledge those things that I feel really sincerely thankful for. My husband’s doctor could get in a new patient at [...]
