Glad to have read about your encounter in the airport again, because it called to mind what you said about using a whole-hand gesture, mentioning that finger-pointing in many countries is considered rude.
I thought of it yesterday when my husband pointed out the window at something when our daughter was over for an Easter meal, and I meant to tell them about it then, but my abhorred ADHD took it right out of my head.
Do you mind if I ask how your name is pronounced? I don't want to be the proverbial "ugly American" who assumes that whatever they see can be said aloud in a way that allows for only English/American sounds or patterns.
I remember my mother slapping my hand when I was younger when I pointed at an elder haha! Thank you for asking about the pronunciation of my name. I don't mind at all. It's Ja like Jaw without the "w" sound!
Please know how much your writing and practice of medicine evokes my appreciation! I think of the Nobel Prizes in a wide variety of endeavors, one of which is “Writing/ Non-Fiction.”) I don’t have to strain my brain to picture you as a recipient! For writing CONSENTED. Or your next hard-hitting work HEALING? In part the result of having medical practitioners of your quality. Not perfect, and able to say, “I was wrong.”

Call me a fan for life!
Do I need to buy from a particular place to get the bookplate? I'm a little confused. (Please be the nice doctor when answering! 😉 )
