- Gotta share a little story with y'all here. My mother is an ob/gyn nurse
- and supervisor at a local suburban hospital. Several weeks ago she was
- prepping a patient in the hospital for an elective abortion. The patient
- was completely ready for the operation, and just before they were going
- to start it, the doctor asked the patient if she had brought the money to
- pay for it. The patient responded that she hadn't remembered, but that she
- would get him the money within two days. The doctor told her to go home and
- come back when she had the money. She went home and came back several hours
- later with the money, and the doctor performed the abortion.
-
- This story is absolute fact. I don't know the legal ramifications of
- supplying the names of the hospital or doctor involved so I will not.
-
- You tell me, was that doctor interested that patients health? She was
- ON the table ready for an operation and he sent her home. Talk about
- playing with someone's fears and emotions. Imagine if you were lying on
- the operating table, ready to have someone hacking into your body, and they
- suddenly changed their mind and sent you home. If that doctor really cared
- about her, he would have trusted her to pay the lousy few hundred bucks.
-
- My dentist gives me a month to pay her bills.
