bad handwriting (or how to panic your patients in two words or less)
Medical professionals are famous for their bad handwriting. Last time I was in for a filling, my dentist handed me a photocopied article on amalgam fillings vs. the tooth-coloured kind, so I was just perusing it. He shouldn’t have written notes on it! I could swear he’s scrawled “Marginal Carnage” next to a bit on operating technique. I may never go to the dentist again …
Rofl! Oh my. Don’t scare me, now, because I still have to go in to get my wisdom teeth removed soon. Yipes!
I just read your article 20-something Reasons to Live at Home. Your perspective is quite refreshing.
