Questions from a curious little patient

My little patient this week had some serious questions for me.
1. Are you a teenager?
2. Are you Chinese?

Here's the jest of our exchange (smirk, the kid is on dialysis, so he's had "exchanges" with the dialysis fluid too)...I asked him how old he thought I was...16 he said. I said older...eventually he got to my age and thought i was full of shit.

When I told him I wasn't from China he did not believe me but went on about karate and kungfu that he's seen on TV. He was a lot more behaved when I told him I broke boards with my palm when I took martial arts as a teenager.
