My son’s doctor called in a panic and exclaimed, “You need to get to my office immediately! I have dire news.” Very worried, I rushed over to find out what was so critical.
When I arrived, he explained, “After a careful review of your son’s charts, I believe that he won’t grow past five feet tall. I’m very sorry to have to deliver this bad news.”
I ask, “OK, but why was this such an emergency? Couldn’t this meeting have waited a few days?”
He answered, “I thought you want to know now, although I’m sorry about the short notice.”
