My colleague noted that she had not had a Pap smear for three years and she willingly agreed that in the presence of the practice nurse she would have one now. My young colleague went to fetch the nurse and noted that a man was having an unusual type of convulsion on the floor of the waiting room. He administered necessary first aid to the young man, who then stood up and seemed perfectly lucid and well. My colleague’s Pap smear patient suddenly rushed from the examination room where she had been left on the couch during this man’s alleged convulsion, grabbed him by the arm, dashed out of the door and was never to be seen again.
