#139...Remarkable Broad

      Recently, I went to see my physician for a physical.   During my physical, Dr. K. said to me:
"I just want you to know, that you are extremely intelligent   I don't think that you realize how intelligent you are."  "Really?" I said.  "Yes", Dr. K. said.  "How do you know this?"  I said.  Dr. K. said "I have been your doctor for at least 15 years."  "As a doctor, I have met a lot of people, but you are one of the most intelligent, that I have met."
     "Don't ever sell yourself short", she said.   "You have had a lot of  ups and downs in your life, but you always pull yourself up and out of it."   Then she said:  "You are one remarkable broad".
      Dr. K.'s compliment was one of the best that I have ever heard.  It moved me to tears, in fact.
Dr. K. was scheduled to retire, the day after I saw her.  I am missing her, so much.
