wow. i had no idea that doctors have access to technology that lets them predict how long people will live by looking at a few photos. last time i checked, they had a hard time predicting how long people would live even if they've done extensive tests. a friend's mom was supposed to live only six months during a battle with cancer, but she lived three years. god bless that doctor for making totally irresponsible judgment calls.
memo to self: spread the news that the doctor is a quack -- any decent doctor would have refused to speculate.
