You saved some snails? Wow. One disappointment I had about medicine, was they never "found" stuff. Stuff you could relate to. You can't relate to "microscope slides" and "pathology reports." What is a pathology report? I want to see some models. If they came in and said, "Your headaches are due to a three pound dermis mite that crossed the Oregon Trail from your eyelids to your brain" ~ that would be something. "You have a beaver stuck on your neck." "You need wormed. Take these big pills, and watch for them to come out. Yes, you can tug a little, unless they bite." Lung Disease. What is that? Now if there was a big sucker like an abalone stuck to your chest, I could see paying them. It would give them some credibility. If it was inflating like an umbrella and hissing. "Your skin has become carpet tape. We're going to change it back." There's not much to look at, which basically makes it pretty boring. How many people do you think can even tell what's going to kill them on an X-ray? I want to see a Klingon Battle Cruiser de-cloak in there. "You swallowed a fork." "Oh, Jesus!"
