@Civixplorer A lot of architecture seen in Catholic Churches is Europe is influenced by Islamic architecture and Islamic craftsman. Example - pointed arches over entranceways and windows. Lots of other examples.
@MattZirwas If you want a mole cut off go to a surgeon. Each hospital system usually has 1 or more cancer surgeons. Short wait times and my go-to will take it off with the first apt. Not make you come back. Try making an appointment with derm anf it will be 6 months out.
@dnlklr We’ve tried relaxing the eat/drink rules and too many elective cases get cancelled. Not everyone can understand the literal criteria but everyone can understand nothing after midnight. So you are paying for the sins of others. Such is life.
I never thought of it like that but you’re right. It is a thinly veiled IQ test. I do it because it does change the way I talk to them. If they are uneducated I could be talking over their head. If they are educated they might think I’m being condescending. So absolutely I ask. As a bonus I get to hear some really cool stories.
@USADocumented I’d say the parents misjudged the situation. I didn’t act that bad when I was told my son had leukemia. Not exactly a nothing burger but not a thing either. Move along.
@CoffeeBlackMD I remember when a tornado struck, 1992’ish, and my friend Mark, late at night, after hearing the wind pick up, opened the door to his daughter’s room and saw sky. He was still in the gym at 5:30AM a few hours later. Be like Mark.
People on here saying this is made up have no idea how much money is floating around out there and how many rich people there are. He probably got the money from his parents. Maybe it’s a long term strategy for avoiding inheritance tax. And cudos to the surgeon for renting. It’s much less stress. He/they have enough stress as it is. If he loves his job (which would be most unlikely) he could work for a long time.
@MohammedAlo You did say the NNT was 25 right? And you told us the relative risk reduction but you did not tell us the absolute risk reduction. Be honest and stop the smoke and mirrors. It’s dishonest.
