Hidden Truth
Hidden Truth by Theodore Homuth They wake before the sun, as they always do, the kind of early that leaves the world gray and soft, edges blurry.

Have you ever heard of the phrase "Second opinion" in regards to medical advice? It occurred often when a professional medical advisor stated something unbelievable or unwanted.

Your BMI alerts one trained professional to tell you that you are obese, while only 20 pounds overweight. Yet another doctor who had previously been a Sumu wrestler says you are perfectly healthy. Sometimes a second opinion is the way to go.
