My obstetrician tried to get us involved!

I mean, doesn't the old boy make enough as it is? I almost had to switch doctors because he kept after us, wanting us to come to meetings.
We have had to avoid other friends for the same reason. Once they got involved, that's all they could talk about. Forget the high school football game, the weather, any other topic of conversation, they were obsessed. A couple of years later, anybody we knew who was in it would be out of it--minus a lot of money and a lot of friends.
