4 On my first day at Dr. Farber's office, I entered the building feeling confident. As soon as the bells on the door chimed, a rotund kitty came running over to greet me. He rubbed his face against my calves and purred. Dr. Farber's assistant then emerged from the reception area and exclaimed a piercing, sing-songy "hello, I'm Sherrilee." As I bent down to scratch the cat's ears, another person leaned out from the reception area and called, "Is he here? Is he here?" in a big booming voice. I silently nodded, taken aback by the enthusiastic salutations. I tended to be quiet and shy until I got to know a person, so I began to worry that maybe this group of people wasn't suitable for me.
