A Mail Order Bride When I Got High


Yesterday.

Mail order brides do exist. I know this because I was working at a rural clinic and a patient of mine brought his mail order bride from the phillipines with him to his office visit. True story.

I saw my first patient with Myasthenia Gravis.

I saw a patient who was suffering from chronic bronchitis. At one point I asked her "do you smoke marijuana?" She chuckled and said a forceful, "No, of course not!" (whoa, sorry). About three minutes later, her phone rings and the ringtone is "Because I Got High", by Afroman. a) Isn't this a song about being high on Marijauana? b) Isn't this a novelty song/ringtone? Don't you have to buy it? I don't think it comes standard with phones. Thus, doesn't this patient probably like the song because she probably likes to smoke the marijuana?

Today.
I had an exam. I didn't know the answer to an essay question, so I wrote something along the lines of "I'm not going to waste your time by having you read an essay that is incoherent. I apologize, but I know nothing about this disease."

I was diagnosed with Herpes and HIV/AIDS for a long time,and I've had some variants of this Herpes and  HIV/AIDS.This has brought me a lot of trouble, on many levels, especially with my partners, and this has given me a lot of self-consciousness.25 years of suffering outbreaks is a long time, I've had depression and I've felt the rejection of many people, who are suffering from it know what I'm talking about.As you know, pharmacological medicine does not provide any adequate solution to eradicate this diseases, it only mitigates the symptoms until the next outbreak.However, about a month ago I discovered some useful information that helped me in a few weeks to make myHerpes and HIV VIRUS disappear naturally after taking DR James herbal mix medicine .Today I am grateful to Doctor James herbal mix medicine that has given me back a normal life.Today I can say that:  I am a new person, or rather, I am back to being a person without complexes because of this silent and complex hell that is herpes.If you don't suffer from herpes, well risky you are, but if you suffer it I invite you to contact this genuine powerful herbal healer called Dr james. Hiv/AIDS is a Deadly disease that cannot be cured by drugs or injections by US doctors, but the best way to fight against HIV/AIDS is to take natural herbal remedies, I read about DR JAMES HERBAL MIX MEDICINE, the great herbalist who cures people of HIV  virus with his powerful herbal medicine. I contacted him to find out how he could help me and he told me never to be afraid that he would help me with the natural herbs medicine! After 2 days of contacting him he told me the medicine is ready and he sent it to me via DHL COURIER SERVICE and it got me in 3 days! I used the medication as he prescribed for me (MORNING and EVENING) and was cured! It's really like a dream, but I'm so happy! For people suffering from the following diseases,Diabetes, cancer,Pcos, hypothyroidism, Herpes, COPD, HIV, arthritis, Hpv, infections, liver disease, autoimmune diseases, Parkinson's disease, Lupus and more should contact him for his herbal medicine, because I am a living witness and I was cured of HIV virus. and DR James medicine is legitimate and 100 percent works. I sent him what he asked for and he sent me his medication which I took for 21 days and today I am here with a negative result. When I went for the test, I was so happy after I took his herbal mix medicine.
