It's a great story!
I only wish it had happened when they cut off my leg!

It Cost An Arm And A (Sorry, Only A Leg)
A little bit of darkish humour for a change. Kleenex will be after you for lack of use on this one, 'Drea.
EDIT ERROR!!
Oops! So sorry Beth! This will teach me to read title blocks properly. Grovel, grovel.
Is the doctor's name Isaac?
Joanne
Please, Stop
No more groveling please. You run the chance of not being able to properly grovel after the next story!
ROFL
I'm glad you enjoyed it. As to the doctor, yes, that was who I had in mind. I mean what's a little character "sharing" between friends.
Hugs,
Beth
Isaac
He'll be a Good Doctor then....
Clever, clever, hope it works.
A lot of us wish it could be this way. It would solve so many of our problems if it was.
Nice story.
Gwendolyn
Thank you, may I have more please?
More of everything please! And more. "I'm not greedy, I just look this way."
love the names
Boris Butonoff? Dr. Asimov? fun. Nice bit of wish fulfillment.
I would love

Where Oh Where is this Hospital At?
Where is this hospital at, and do you suppose they'd be that generous in the real world?? I'll bring my own hammer if it helps!
Wonderful story!

It seems that there are strange arrangements in the subatomic particles that cause them to possess properties similar to the oft searched for and seldom found philosopher's stone. In other words there are few things that love and a plate of Chocolate Chip Cookies can't make better!!

What a way to get your heart' desire.

If you thought that was something...
In a twist on the ‘vaginoplasty to repair a groin injury’ TG fiction trope, one TG story had the protagonist get run over while fleeing from a runaway tractor mower. After the surgeons patched up his legs and backside, he was left with seriously shortened Achilles tendons. The only way he could walk was in towering ski-high heels…
And then from Real Life™ comes this news story about a fashionista who had her club foot (and leg) amputated so that she could be fitted for a prosthetic designed to work with heels…
WOW OH WOW!!!!!
I loved this story. It was so funny to see the way things progressed. I especially loved how the ambulance chaser was trumped by his client. But best of all was the reaction of Dr. Asimov (and by the way was his first name Issac/). Big cudos for this one Beth.
Need another KUDO button
The kudo button says 'good story'. If there were two kudo buttons instead of one, and the second button was labelled 'great story'... that's the one I'd clic on.
Some days you're the pigeon, some days you're the statue
Is this hospital in Frostbite Falls?
Dr. Asimov should have been Dr. William Winkle, that way it would have been Bill Winkle and Rocky vs. Boris Butonoff.
Very good story.
Hooray! You Win the Wattsamatta U Golden Antler Award!!
While your conjecture is close Holly and I were wondering if anyone would get the butonoff and rocky spin... If we had carried that all the way the surgery would have been done at the Wattsamatta U. Medical Ceter! and Debbie was almost Nattie, short for Natasha. We played with it but ultimately I thought that would detract from the story.
Beth
Glad to see a couple of people saw the intentional tie-in
With Boris Badinov and Rocky the Flying Squirrel.
Then, today, less than a week later came the word that their creator has passed away.

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

ROFL
Sorry, I laughed when I saw the "Good Doctor's" name, and then you made him the "GOOD" doctor. ROFL.
Thanks,

Well, you can tell lawyer jokes, like the rest of us do. ;)
Two attorneys are waiting in line at the tellers’ windows when a group of balaclava-masked armed robbers storm into the bank. After one of them fires his shotgun into the ceiling to get everyone’s attention, they line up the customers, including our two attorneys, with their backs up against a wall. After the robbers clean out the tellers’ cash drawers, they start working their way down the line of customers, taking wallets, watches, and anything else of value. One of the attorneys feels the other one nudging his hand with something sharp. “Here,” he whispers.
The first attorney takes the object, which turns out to be a tightly folded banknote, and asks, “What’s this for?”
“That’s that $50 I’ve been owing you.”
