In(tentional) Sickness And In Health
(We respond to an unconscious diabetic. While my partner is treating the patient, I am asking the wife some questions.)
Me: “So, is your husband on any medications?”
(She lists the medications her husband is on, including insulin.)
Me: “And has he been compliant with those medications lately?”
Wife: “Nope.”
Me: “Do you know why not?”
Wife: “Well, we had a big fight last week, so I hid all his meds. He hasn’t found them yet.”
