This is a consolidation of both of my previous publications and a revision of my autobiography portrayed in a more explicit manner. I present more details showing how, with my pronounced limited academic ability, I managed to utilize both positive and detrimental factors from my early childhood to my advantage in order to accomplish my ultimate success in life. I present my usual witty satire in discussing the many hardships and hurdles I encountered during my seemingly-impossible educational path. My eventual goal was also undoubtedly attributed to my life-long ability of being able to overachieve and outperform. Along with these factors and endless battles with bipolar illness and gross obesity, I managed to convert these deterrents into an incredibly advantageous situation, as I explain how some of the characteristics resulting from my illness actually helped to sustain my drive to success. Even one of my decisions to quit medical school turned out to be a very important impetus in my eventual success. I eventually served thirty years as a rural family practice physician and fourteen years as coroner of a mid-sized Louisiana parish. I strive to add and discuss more pertinent information regarding my life experiences that was erroneously but unintentionally omitted from my previous publication, and address many of the questions that arose unanswered, along with relating more gruesome and mischievous incidents, including a more recent mishap that left me with a slight handicap. I discuss the countless problems that I faced while treating my patients, relate my numerous conflicts with various governmental agencies and organizations, and detail many unusual cases that helped mold my life and influenced my decisions. I also reveal even more of my innermost secrets and confessions during my practice, and I elaborate further on my bipolar illness and its impact on my life. This book is intended for individuals who feel that they can't accomplish their dreams and aspirations in life and people who are far from perfect. It is a must-read for bipolar individuals who should have no problem in identifying with me, and for anyone else suffering from an emotional problem. On the personal side, I also outline some serious consequences that I sustained from having been morbidly obese for over thirty years. I accomplished my ultimate goal in life in spite of my many problems---the biggest obstacles being my bipolar illness, low self-esteem and lack of confidence, and the worst of all: myself Regarding my educational background and experience, I received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Zoology from Southeastern Louisiana College in Hammond, Louisiana, and a medical degree from L.S.U. Medical School in New Orleans, accomplishing the latter in three short years; completed a rotating "O" internship at Earl K. Long Hospital in Baton Rouge; worked in numerous emergency rooms all over the State of Louisiana; held many professional jobs, including the public health clinic, local mental health center, and substance-abuse clinic; was awarded several state contracts; served as medical director of both the parish and Hammond City jails; practiced family medicine for 30 years; and held the position of coroner for 14 years at a mid-sized Louisiana Parish, performing over 1,500 autopsies.
