Body check.

Doctor visit.

Went to see my doctor today...
he's doing fine.
Like most older people
I am not without some major medical problems.
Things turned out OK.
He told me everything went well and would send me the bill.
I was ecstatic.
My immediate thought was...
he felt I would live long enough
to pay the full amount due.
Had he asked me if it would be cash or check...
I would have been very concerned.

Like my valve....people ask how long it's expected to last.
Well, they told me it was guaranteed for a lifetime. My interpretation: when it goes, my lifetime screeches to a halt. But it's still going 25 years later. When God calls, I'll be ready to go!

I'd be even more concerned if he came right out and said "Cash Only!"

Thanks,

Chris
