Wow...Times HAVE Changed...


Some 2 decades before…

My Mom: Hello doc, I guess he has got fever

Doc: Checks temperature, mom and I curious to know what is it, he says 104
Gives me a shot, and scribbles prescription.

We come back home.

Yesterday:

Doc: What happened?

My Wife: He has got fever, It was 104 in the morning, I administered crocin drops and in the afternoon it was 102 and then crocin drops 5 ml, and it has subsidized after that. He is not dull and his motions are normal. I guess it’s a small case of viral infection.

Doc: Ok!!! Yes it is a viral infection and do continue what ever you are doing! I’m not giving any anti biotic continue the same.

My wife: Yeah I know, he need to fight diseases with out anti biotic and it would help him to be more resistant. Thanks doctor.

Doc: Why the heck did you even come to me!!!!
