Book excerpt: Dave Coverly's A Prescription for Laughter takes no prisoners as he boldly crosses the lines of patient/doctor confidentiality to document the funny, often bizarre, and sometimes hilarious encounters a patient can have with a doctor. There's no denying that a good laugh is very good medicine for the soul, and it's with a keen eye that Coverly finds humor in everything from (un)routine office visits to inhospitable hospital stays. For example, there's a doctor confessing to his patient, "I'll be the first to admit, the results of your autopsy were very surprising," or a couple sitting with their newborn as an officer appears to say, "I'm sorry, ma'am, but there was a mix-up at the hospital, and we think you brought home the wrong husband,", or a surgeon explaining, "We put a screw in your hip, and since you were under, we figured we'd just tighten the loose one in your head."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You dont feel well, so you call your doctor and get put on hold. The first available appointment is in three weeks. They ask about insurance. You tell them, HMO. It is now four weeks. You quickly say, PPO. Its back to three weeks. You plead and then yell. They say next week, angrily. You are now afraid they will mark your file and give you expired drugs made for rabid cows. You mention lawsuit. Theyll squeeze you in tomorrow. You arrive fifteen minutes early, wait three hours, and see the doctor for two minutes. The prescription drug you get keeps you in the bathroom. Your insurance refuses to pay. Collectors call. You now have high blood pressure, so you call your doctor. Youre put on hold. The first available appointment is in three weeks. Hassles like these are inherent in the idiocy, incompetence, and illogical nature of Americas health-care system. Author Bruce Abrahams is not a doctor; instead, hes a person with so many medical conditions that his medical alert bracelet simply states, Never mind. As a perennial patient, Abrahams shares embarrassing anecdotes and provides valuable tips in dealing with health-care difficulties for both healthy and health-challenged individuals. While carefully dissecting common difficulties using humor, Abrahams explores how to take charge of your health care. Prescription for Laughter offers practical advice from a patients perspective that will keep you laughing as you successfully navigate a complicated health-care system.

Book excerpt: Brevity is the soul and wit of this publication; however, the medical industry is the largest and most complex combination of human resources ever assembled, earning it a status well worth writing about. Certain epigrams are gentle and subtle, and others quite caustic, but all contain some form of social or scientific commentary. If the reader has a morbid sense of humor, this book will be especially enjoyed.
