If your pain/problem is serious enough, take care of your body and go see your doctor.

I'd be happy to answer anything from face amount justification to medical questions (in relation to life insurance...I'm not a doctor).

I know your sister was staying with you and all the expoenses you had at the doctor and I hope you're feeling much better.

You could get a doctorate degree in all that time of lurking.

I spent the rest of the day with a terrified wife in the doctors office getting prodded, poked, xrayed and monitored.

Would you want a doctor to operate on you if he didnt graduate with his degree from medical school?

The Doctor and his family had to live somewhere else and while the insurance company paid additional living expenses, they were going to be cut off.

Tim McVeigh blowing up Federal buildings; idiots shooting doctors in front of clinics; the Unibomber sending package bombs; government scientists sending anthrax through the mail to Senators and news media; the "D.C. sniper"...

Very few people will spend the necessary time that one needs to be coached and not expect something in return, and asking for something in return isn't a problem.Like Bryan said above, people don't expect their doctor, accountant or attorney to work for free, so why would they expect a mentor to work for free?

Check with your doctor for Viagra, if it works for more than four hours, call everyone know!
