it is "your" s/m
Subject: it is "your" s/m

the following link should explain it - the phrase following the "your" is called a gerund and requires the use of the possessive pronoun.

You are appreciating what the person did, not the person.  If it was the other way, it would be "I appreciate you for having seen me..."

Please tell me that you are not serious?  There are children that weigh that much, so of course there are those like me that are tipping the scale excessively.  I would just like to know if you live a sheltered life?  Or is this just to spark a conversation?

Subject: I am not kidding you guys here!

I have listened, re-listened, and even had my husband listen and he says he's definitely saying poopy too!  Can you imagine?!  I tried comparing it with what you guys are telling me, and it darnitall if it's not clear as a bell that he's saying "poopy looking." 


I already sent my report in because it's gettin' late and I've got TAT to meet, but I'm sure I'll hear about it if I did bads.  I'm just giggling away though with this one.  One more poopy report to type up and I'm donesies for the night.  Glad I could give you guys a smile at the end of what I'm sure has been a long day.

Ain't got nun and ain't gonna get nun...
Subject: Ain't got nun and ain't gonna get nun...

Sorry...excerpt from an old joke I heard at a comedy club in Boston once.


You are hearing it correctly.  Some people will refer to a preist or a nun as "Father" or "Sister" and leave out their name.  I met a priest once (just once) and I referred to him as just "Father" when I thanked him for doing whatever it is he did at my mother's wake.  (Can you tell I'm not religious?)  I didn't know his name or anything, and besides, that's what I heard everyone else around me call him. 


I think the name Mary is just one of those many "good Irish-Catholic names"...kind of like the one I got stuck with but instead bury it with the name "Hayseed."

I don't think there's a way to determine for sure. The fact that "another doctor" said it was ACL doesn't mean that's what they've decided the problem is. On the other hand, he could have switched "ACL" with "LCL" (like they always do right and left, metatarsal/metacarpal, etc.) Don't think there's a way to tell for sure. Sorry!
wanna, gonna, he's
Subject: wanna, gonna, he's

When i first got this account, I expanded contractions. Today I received a memo that I was supposed to type all words verbatim and not to add any extra words. I stopped expanding contractions, but this doctor is saying things like wanna, gonna, he's, there's... and then sometimes says want to, going to, he is, there is...

I feel so silly typing "gonna" and "wanna." Am I right to type these like this?

This is gonna sound nuts, but I knew a Clac product
Subject: This is gonna sound nuts, but I knew a Clac product

It was not a medication, rather an "environmentally friendly" fly repellent used on livestock and pets.  Here's a link to one of the product sites I found it on:
https://www.smartpakcanine.com/productclass.aspx?productClassId=1518&GCID=C11284x040


They no longer use the Clac name and have since renamed it Deo-Lotion.


I'll be interested on hearing what you finally find out about your patient!

One person tells me to put disc for spine and disc for eyes.  This is for a neurology account.  The other person tells me to use disk for spine and disc for eyes.  This is for neurosurgery.  I still am not sure which one is correct though   I just go by what the person prefers.
