Being Happy

Apologies for not posting over the past few days, but sometimes diagnoses are made accurately, patients are compliant and have good outcomes, and normally-obstructionist jerks co-operate fully, and there really isn't anything to make angry doc angry.

And I'm not the only one feeling a little more placid this week - Dr Crippen, Dr tscd, and Dr Barbados Butterfly all seem to be enjoying a little respite from the usual aggravations too.

Not much on the media front to ruffle my feathers either. In fact, this article from Today today even managed to put a smile on my face:

(excerpt)

"What about healthcare policies aimed at making people happier? If people are happier, they are less likely to fall ill, thus, saving money for the taxpayer and themselves. What about educating Singaporeans on depression being a common illness? And negotiating with makers of Prozac and other anti-depressants that have limited side effects to supply Singaporeans with cheap pills?"


Yes, we should just put it in the tap water and make everyone happy.
