We see the families who dump off Granny on Friday so they can go out of town for the weekend. So I thought the guy deserved something special for what he does for my Gram.

Let’s recap what I got my dad for Christmas:

  • A belt buckle from Philmont Scout Ranch: $20.
  • A leg lamp from “A Christmas Story:” $50.
  • A stethoscope with engraving: $175.

Seeing my father’s face light up when he could actually listen to her lungs and understand her condition even more: Priceless.


Dr. Bundy is an assistant medical director at Baptist Medical Center East in Montgomery, Ala., and a former photojournalist, who not only sings in the car, but talks to herself, is addicted to diet drinks and shoes, and thinks emergency medicine is the greatest specialty.
