The librarian would not allow me to check out my husband's book!

The military hospital does the same thing with medical records. My wife and I have to have a release form on file so we can pick up each others medical records. However; this library thing seems a little extreme. I would definitely know what my kid is reading.

When my husband died, he had an outstanding ambulance bill. Several months later, the billing company called me to straighten it out. But they wouldn't talk to me, they needed to talk to the "patient".

I told them the patient died that night, and they already knew it. It was the most nonsensical phone call I've had in a while. (excluding Verizon, the company from hell).

I would say, well, give me a claim number, or info, and I will pass it onto the insurance company. She would say i can't do that. Then I said how can insurance cover it? She said I don't know, but I have to call you about this and I can't give you any information.

I guess they got paid somehow.

There is a huge difference between an adult's medical record and a childs library book list.
