I answer Yes to all these -- as long as the service or procedure has not yet been paid for. Once the patient pays, it's a contract & it's binding.

I support prayer in schools. Kids are supposed to learn how to read, write, & cipher. That's pie-in-the-sky for millions nowadays. So if I were in school for twelve years & still hadn't learned how to read & write, I'd pray, too.
