The problem you can't talk about… is now two problems. - Seth Godin

On the tube, a beautiful and mature (north of age 50 – like me) woman in a blue gown is laying on a bed. She looks longingly into my eyes and says, “Ask your doctor about Viagra single packs.”
Not only is she beautiful, she has an amazing ability to do everything in slow motion. She enters a hotel room with a handsome (not like me) and mature man in slow motion. Riding down a beach road in a little red convertible, her hair blows in slow motion.
Amazingly, after spending the day and presumably the night moving in slow motion with the handsome man, she is on a bed telling me to ask my doctor about Viagra single packs. My mother, warned me about women (at the time, girls) like this.
A friend in high school, against all odds, kept a different type of “single pack” in his wallet. To my knowledge, he never met a slow motion girl. Presumably, he now has two types of single packs in his wallet. Just in case…
Two years ago another friend, Steve, went to his physician to ask about the pain in his shoulder. A tennis player, Steve told Dr. Mike it hurt to extend his arm to serve. (Seems both Steve and the slow motion woman are concerned about extensions…)
Dr. Mike referred Steve to a cardiologist, “Just in case.” The cardiologist immediately ordered Steve to the hospital (in a big red truck that did not move in slow motion).
Since open heart surgery, Steve watched both his children marry. Steve’s wife says, “Dr. Mike saved Steve’s life.”
Ask your doctor.
How about you? When did you ask the doctor? Share a Story.
