Being edgy is hard on your health at
least that’s what Doc is always telling me. I’ve been doing pretty
good not letting things get to me. Pretty good indeed…until the
other day when I was talking to my cousin, who practices two
counties away. He told me a story that was hard to believe. Jake
has been known to pull more than prosthetic legs, but this story
was so unbelievable it had to be true. It seems Jake got a call
from a patient for whom he had made a leg a few years back, when
the patient was an inmate at the state prison. Jake said the state
is responsible for the healthcare of prisoners, so the state paid
for the leg. The patient was calling to say he had been out of the
state’s custody for a few years and was doing well. He went on to
tell Jake how he had been working hard to turn his life around, and
he even had a job with benefits, including healthcare.
