We all give in sometimes to moral/emotional blackmail. Sometimes we meet with threats of physical violence. Once I was asked to fill in a wheelchair application form by a cripple who had elbow crutches. If I didn't sign it he was going to shove them down my throat. Quite likely as this chap had brain damage following a car accident which had left some of his behaviour severely disinhibited. He was extremely happy with his wheelchair and I had great fun (like many other drivers in Wath) overtaking him on the streets:-) Unfortunately he was murdered some years ago. The murderer, also one of my patients at the time, was severely disinhibited because of other reasons. -------------------------- Dr David J Plews email: [log in to unmask] %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
