This was kind of a pivotal moment for me because this was the first time I ever really stuck up for myself to someone of authority. It was also the first time I didn't let my dad push me into anything. Yeah, I caught a lot of hell for it. At the same time, it taught me to never allow any doctor to treat me this way, again, as it wasn't the only time I've ever dealt with a disrespectful professional. I'm not sure if I got the doc's respect but I got his attention and that was enough for me. I had to fight him on something else, too, but that's another story.
