    Day four of clinicals was really long. The first patient was scheduled from 8 until 1, he was getting fitted for 4 crowns and an implant crown. When the patient came in he had a horrible odor and looked like he hasn’t taken care of himself in months.

    at him lying there exposed on the floor, and why is he swollen on his entire right side? It doesn’t take a genius to figure that out, it was from the fall. That goofy looking doctor offered me some off-the-wall excuse, it’s fluid, as if I was just going to accept the nonsense. Expressing my indignation at their incompetence and unprofessional conduct toward my husband I literally told him, “you don’t know what you are doing and you look like you don’t know what you are doing.” Someone else need to

This theme is clearly displayed when Mr. White didn’t know what to wish for when he had the monkey’s paw in his hand. Admittedly, Mr. White “...didn’t know what to wish for…” and “It seems to me I’ve got all I want” (Jacob 685). Therefore, Mr. White didn’t feel the need to wish for anything because he
