Comments on: My Father’s Trip to the Doctor, Part 2 http://www.oscarnuno.com/2009/05/31/medicine/my-fathers-trip-to-the-doctor-part-2/ The Weblog of Oscar Nuño Thu, 09 Sep 2010 05:29:05 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Oscar http://www.oscarnuno.com/2009/05/31/medicine/my-fathers-trip-to-the-doctor-part-2/comment-page-1/#comment-106 Oscar Tue, 02 Jun 2009 00:10:20 +0000 http://www.oscarnuno.com/?p=258#comment-106 Thanks, bud. I try to be very patient, especially when it comes to my folks. They did not have all the advantages I have had, advantages they fought to give me, so it is my way to show my most sincere gratitude. Oh, and yes, right now I would rather work there than any other hospital in Houston, everything is brand new and state-of-the-art! I like the way you phrase it, "all in preparation for our generation of doctors"! :D Also, I am now watching what I eat and I do workout a little more. It's a start... Thanks, bud.

Heck, I get upset at my mom for having to show her how to attach a document to an e-mail for the umpteenth time; your story is really that of a patient, caring individual. Oh yeah, and I passed by the Memorial Hermann you went to for the first time in years not too long ago. Totally - shocked! They completely redid the place from the last time I saw it. It's all in preparation for our generation of doctors. ;-) Consider it this way - the fact that your father was (properly) diagnosed is a good thing indeed. As you know, diabetes is very controllable with the right medication and lifestyle changes. Now you can rest easy knowing your father's updated and complete history to not only help him better, but to help you make the right decisions in life regarding your own health. :-) I totally agree with Michelle!

I am very family-oriented and love both of my parents so much. I try to help them in any way I can, and like taking them out to have fun. They are a bit old, they had me while in their late 30s to early 40s, they are in their 60s, hence the need to take care of them. ;) Why, thank you!

Really, that is SO rare. They are blessed to have you. One day, you will have an office just like that. And by golly, I'm believing that those health issues will NOT be your inheritance. You have far greater things awaiting you, Dr. Rommel.
