It's Mami, Mommy!

Daughter Duties 11 My 78-yr old mom cooked for me dry instant noodles. She didn't put half of the seasoning and claimed it was really salty already. When I tasted it, it was indeed not kidney-friendly. When I read the package instructions, it was supposed to be a soup and not dry noodles. Hehe. No wonder it was very salty indeed! Mami sya dapat, Mommy! Hindi pancit!

11 y/o Drinks Beer

Petite Pedia Plots 50 My 11-year old patient just told me he drinks beer. And his Mom allows him. Before I could start on my lecture about the evils of alcohol, he then said, "Yes, Dra, I am allowed to drink ROOTBEER!" 

Don't Ask Questions, Dr!

Petite Pedia Plots 49 Always so used to seeing both parents during this patient's check-up, I asked the mom where the dad was this morning. 5-yr old patient blurts out, "Ay! Nag-away sila kanina, Dra". 

Clingy Orphan

Petite Pedia Plots 48 Today was my 3rd visit to a "new" orphanage. I was so happy when a 2 yr old boy seemed so attached to me he didn't want me to put him down. I also learned he was the one with head lice. No wonder my scalp's starting to itch.
