The (Mis)Adventures of Dr. D

Petite Pedia Plots 63 While doing rounds on a 5 year old patient, he started coughing.  When I asked Lola if he has been coughing the whole day, Lola answered, "He only coughs when you're around, Dra." I couldn't help but think that the child was allergic to me! (Photo from Wisegeek) Add caption

Daughter Duties 12 My cute Mom told me that she "simply" wanted to go to SM. Translated, it meant passing by the following: (1) the houses of her amigas to give some mangoes away, (2) the old house to check on it, (3) the bank, (4) the other bank, (5) the drugstore for their medicines (and mine), (6) SM (finally!!! Not!) to do groceries and lastly, (7) the hospital to get a specimen cup for her urinalysis. The simple trip had turned into a 3-hour debacle. Hehe.
