The nurse had him take a1in the waiting area,2him it would be  at least 40 minutes3someone would  be able to  see him .I saw him4his watch  and decided, since I was5buy-my patient  didn't6at the appointed  hour ,I would examine his wound, While taking care  of his wound ,I asked him if he had another doctor's appointment.

The gentleman said no and told me that he7to go to the nursing home on eat breakfast with his8.He told me that she had been9for a while and  that she had a special disease, I asked if she would be10if he was a bit late. He replied that she11knew who he  was ,that she had not been able to12him for five years now. I was13and asked him," And you14go every morning, even though she  doesn't know who you are?"

He smiled and said ."She doesn't know me, but I  know who she is" I had to hold back15as he left.
