Summary: A woman tries to tell her uncomprehending doctor that she doesn't have her family medical history because, as an adoptee, she's legally denied access to the records.
Made me smile and made me mad - a truth-telling piece. Excellent.
Who hasn't faced frustration when dealing with a physician? Communication can be challenging. Mix in legal retraints and you have a recipe for struggle.
I'm not adopted, but I could feel the frustration one would face in such a circumstance.
A provocative and frustrating theme perfectly softened by humor and good pacing.
I'd like to hear more pieces like this on my radio.
