Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm glad it worked, in any case
There's no indication it did work, though. I have no idea what the motivation behind it was--dare the patient to prove the statement wrong? Prepare the patient for some inevitable alienation?
No clue.
Everything turned out passably well, but I still find it strange.
My teeth cleaning has been moved from the end of April to mid-July. I feel paranoid now.
eta:

True, although the patient has a history of being a reliable narrator.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I would like to annonuce that I just had the Best. Sandwich. Ever. Smoked pepper turkey and smoked gouda on light rye with shredded lettuce and sharp grainy mustard. Heavenly.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
And why is Office doing a freaky clipboard stack thing in the periphery of my vision?
Because it is evil and Clippy is an attendant of Satan.

I saw a $350 plain black t-shirt in the store last night that made the sandwich seem positively reasonable.

They look like Re: abcde news where abcde is a random string of five letters, not apparently spellchecked.
A few days ago I got an e-mail titled Re: luwak news. Dude. I totally clicked on that to read, but, alas a nigh-illegible mortgage scam lay beneath, not civet-poo coffee news.

It cost precisely 0$, as I am on a business trip and The Man pays. There IS such a thing as a free lunch!
