my parents, both medical doctors,
somehow followed Nitzche who was outlawd in USSR:
"What doesn't kill you makes you stronger"
I was coming home from the street with holes in my pants, stuffed with ice and snow.....never had common cold when I was growing up.
Once when I wasn't ready for the test and told my father I was sick and can't go to school-
he told me I was full of shit.
I went to the doctor, the other doctor said I had...pneumonia!
When I got home, and told my father I have INDEPENDENT doctor conclusion that I was bona fide sick and can't go to school,
he took his stetoscope,
told me that BOTH me and that doctor are full of shit and the next day I went to school.
nope, I didn't have pneumonia, but I was acting good and knew all the dirty tricks
;-)))
