Chief Complaint: (written on the chart before I go in the room)
“my glens are swollen”
Interesting Name:
Skunkevius
Anecdote:
My children enjoy having the office connected to the house. One snowy day in December, I watched them shoveling the snow from the front of the office walk and thought what a nice thing for them to do. It's a good lesson in helping others and working hard.
Later on, one of my patient's Mothers laughed as she told me that they were shoveling snow, alright... and then piling it onto the handicapped ramp for a slide for their sleds.
Westport, Connecticut 1990's

Poetry:
Diamond Girl, you sure do shine. Glad I found you, glad you're mine.
Oh my love, you're like a precious stone, part of earth where heaven has rained on.
Makes no difference where you are. Day or nighttime, you're like a shinin' star.
And how could I shine without you, when it's about you that I am?
Oh my love, you're like a precious stone, part of earth where heaven has rained on.
Makes no difference where you are. Day or nighttime, you're like a shinin' star.
And how could I shine without you, when it's about you that I am?
Diamond Girl, roamin' wild. Such a rare thing, radiant child.
I could never find, another one like you. Part of me is deep down inside you.
Can't you feel the whole world a-turin'. We are real, and we are a-burnin'.
Diamond Girl, now that I've found you, it's about you that I am.
I could never find, another one like you. Part of me is deep down inside you.
Can't you feel the whole world a-turin'. We are real, and we are a-burnin'.
Diamond Girl, now that I've found you, it's about you that I am.
Diamond Girl, you sure do shine. Diamond Girl, you sure do shine.
Diamond Girl, you sure do shine. Diamond Girl, you sure do shine.
Diamond Girl, you sure do shine. Diamond Girl, you sure do shine.

Favorite Musician/song:
David Gray, "Silver Linings"
You get wrapped up in his voice and lyrics…enveloped. Haunting.

Favorite Book/author:
Wilkie Collins, "The Moonstone"
The say it is one of the first detective novels. Very atmospheric and gripping. I recently reread it…a great read.
