In that case, why would anyone have a problem telling that doctor that they are going elsewhere?

All I can say is good luck finding a doctor who would take the time to even read the letter!

It is funny, I have said "if this were your Mother, what would you do"? I left out "asshole" but I probably would have used that too, if I had thought about it! Next time I will try that :woohoo:

I don't suppose a shorter version like
Dear Asshole,
Where you have your mother treated?
would work?
:silly: :S

Christine,

I don't mind at all. Share that stuff anywhere/everywhere.

We had a great time in Mexico! I did get two dives in while I was there and didn't need to go to the bathroom. Went before getting on the boat and then again once I got back after the two dives. Didn't need to try to go off the boat but I was prepared if I needed to.

Mike, I copied your letter over to another thread for the benefit of another poster... I was pretty confident you would not mind.

Thanks,
Christine

BTW, how did your trip to Mexico go??? Did you get to go diving??? I wanna hear all about it! :cheer:
