From the wonderful blog, Not Always Right:
(Note: 40 degrees Celsius is about 104 degrees Fahrenheit.)
Me: *on the phone* “Hi, I’ll need you to come and pick up your son right away. He’s not feeling very well.”
Mother: “What’s wrong?”
Me: “He’s running a 40 degree temperature.”
Mother: “Oh. No, he’s fine. That’s normal.”
Me: “Uh, I’m sorry?”
Mother: “Don’t worry about him, love. That’s normal. He’s a werewolf, you know. Werewolves run hot. Didn’t you know that?”
(It takes me a few moments, but I realize she’s perfectly serious.)
Me: “I’m sorry, but I still think you need to take him to the doctor.”
Mother: “Ugh, fine. I’ll come and get him, but the doctor will only say what I told you!”

I don't know whether to TAG that under funny, weird or sad.

Gives fuel to the fire for the opposition of "Parents know best for their children."
I wish more folks realized that some providers deal with REALLY off the wall clients.
There are no mental stability requirements to pregnancy. 
Those providers are the ones that need to vent a bit more.....

my 7 yr old runs hot, but I've never considered her a werewolf, hmmm thats a new one.Can you see a dr. saying that her ds is a werewolf so he is allowed to run hot, does she bring him to a vet to be assessed.
