My doctor, at that time, was a very elderly gentleman, and he had taken the time to dress himself (even for his midnight visit) in the old fashioned manner you see in 1920's films, with frock coat, spats, and the most incredibly white triangular starched collar, before he came. He was immaculate. He even had that over large doctor's bag with absolutely everything in it. I had to carry my son downstairs and place him on the the oak dining room table. My two girls looked in amazement at this apparition. But this gentleman revived my son, got him breathing better again, and gave me medicines from his bag. And he came again the next day to check him over.How do we go from that, in the 70's, to this in 2021 of peopleless healthcare, in less than 50 years?</blockquote>
