Stevens reciprocated with a smile. “Oh, and ah… just one more thing before you leave, Seth,” he then said, and he appeared to begin peering around the small countertop the room had provided as if in search of something. After picking up the rest of his belongings, the doctor then spotted several pamphlets had set aside which had found their way mixed in with his the rest of his paperwork. Dr. Stevens then said hesitantly, “I know we’ve talked about this before. And, I’m sure you’re just going to throw these away as soon as you leave. But, I would not be doing my duty as your doctor if I didn’t at least try to give you these and urge you to start taking your health more seriously. I really hope you find these useful and maybe even follow some of their advice. And, I know it’s too much to hope for but possibly look into some of the programs they offer.” The last part of Dr. Steven’s speech had sounded more like a question to Seth than a suggestion, but he let it go just the same as he briefly sifted through the pamphlets: Alcoholics Anonymous, Coping with Depression, Suicide Awareness, and P.T.
