      FINAL_B agreed. I could think of 10 ways to do it wrong without being even 50% right on any of them. Docs license plate : “If anyone else calls you beast... I’ll rip their lungs out.” “Cause I can. Safely!”

    When I worked as a physical-therapy aide, my first job out of high school, I would perform what was called chest PT on a university student, probably not even twenty, with cystic fibriosis. Chest PT essentially amounts, or amounted if it's no longer practiced, to slapping the mucus out of the lungs. This kid, whose name was Chris, was the sweetest person in the world -- and smart and funny and cool. I wasn't aware, being eighteen and knowing almost nothing about cystic fibriosis, that he was unlikely to make it to forty, until it was explained to me one of the physical therapists. It crushed me then and I feel a little ache every time every time I think of Chris -- I'm sure he's long gone. I'm so glad this guy -- Kevin -- got a new lease on life. Goodspeed -- and here's to you, Chris.
