"I did."

"No Ma'am you didn't."

"Oh no,Ma'am....you've exceeded your 30 day warranty."

Suppose this was cancer ?

Husband having issues...unbelevably low B12 levels...Dr who discovers this says..."With these levels you should fall asleep whenever you're under stress."

Husband judges large horse shows,is under stress often...has a business built upon other peoples' hobby...bad economic times,people cut back on hobby spending...very stressful.

They increase B12 shots from every two weeks to every 10 days...to every week...(looking like pin cushion)...wife comes in,finds husband passed out on floor...emails Dr after husband comes too...Dr immediately emails back...

"I'm out of the office for the next 11 days..."

Emails and calls referral physician...asks "Does anyone know WHY he's low on B12 and craves sugar every afternoon ?...only been 3 days...

Suppose this IS cancer ?

BUT, DON"T MESS UP OUR HEALTH CARE SYSTEM !!!
