Everyone has slow days at work, and sometimes the phrase "create your own fun" becomes less a saying and more a plan of action. In the case of one Cornelia B. Wilbur and their diagnosis and treatment of Shirley Ardell Mason, however, it became something...much different. Join Leslee, Chantelle, and Atlas on today's Can You Repeat That? as they follow along with Shirley Mason, a person of two minds about a lot of things, and Cornelia Wilbur, the doctor who may (or may not) have made those two minds. Genuine case or deliberate medical malpractice? You be the judge.
