At a medical checkup last week.

A very pleasant 79-year old doctor attended me.

She is a Punjabi lady.

She went through all the questions listed in the insurance form with me including family health history.

And the we reached the section where she has to declare her neutral position in checking my health.

She read the questions out loud and answered them out loud too.

She paused…..

And then she said…..
