Friendship is Good Medicine

Today's blog is short...I'm back from a spectacular golfing sejour and up to my elbows in alligators back here in the office.  While sifting through emails, bills, scheduling and preparing for today's round of patients, I received telephone calls from two of my oldest and dearest friends who wanted to share some very funny, ironic and engaging stories with me.  I laughed until tears rolled from my eyes from one friend's tale and the other had a few good stories to share herself.  I always try to make my patients laugh and smile and put their problems aside for the time they spend with me.  Laughter is part of good medicine.  Today, I woke up with no fun stories to share with my patients and just as I thought I hit the bottom of the creativity barrel - my friends called.

Friendship....one of the finer gifts in life and sometimes, the best medicine you can have.  Call a friend today and let them hear your voice.  Share something fun with them and give them a day's dosage of the most precious thing you can give to them....your love.
