We played Little League baseball together. All-Star team too. No, really.
Back story....We grew up in the same neighborhood but went to different high schools. He went to Duke, I went to a state school. His Dad was a Dr. and actually was head of HEW (a cabinet position) under Reagan. My Dad owned a construction company. We both had kids (our girls are on the same cheerleading team). He did his residency at Johns Hopkins, I paid my dues in the real estate business. I have asthma and when my prior Dr. was retiring from practice he recommended I try this new, young guy I said 'Sure, what's his name?'. 'Really? He is an asthma/allergy specialist? Great.' Been with him for 10 years now. We work on my asthma together. He is a professor at the USF Med School in Tampa so he is always on top of the new drugs and treatment therapies. I like the relationship.
