Medicine

'You would prosper in the field of medicine', so said the fortune cookie.

A fortune cookie story concerning me:

In 2001, one day at work (Boeing Co., Bld. 41, Long Beach) I treated an Iranian female engineer for allergy using acupuncture. I also advised her to avoid sea food, especially shrimp. Then after lunch break, some one told me she was looking eagerly for me. That made me a little worried. When finding me, she exuberantly told me that she got a fortune cookie that said, 'Nature heals, ....' I got an instant relief because I thought something might have gone wrong with her because of my acupuncture !!!

(note: I acquired my California acupuncture license in 2001.)
