To Everyone who is on GITS....As I said, because of some of the experiences I've had within the last year, I hope that everyone here will pay complete attention to every word in the proposed medical directives from our Government.

Personally, I've found the current care to be mostly excellent, certainly from the Doctor's part...BUT where I do want to caution all of you....and hope you will call now to your own Doc and your husband's or wife's Doc....

l) Find out what hospital they practice in if some emergency arises for you or your loved one.

--This definitely makes a difference as to where you are taken for treatment.

2) THEN, ask the Doc IF he/she will be the attending Doc if you are admitted to the hospital.

--If the answer is No, then ask: "Who will be in charge if you aren't going to be there".....

--Chances are, they will say there will be a Hospitalist (that you don't know) but that who is SUPPOSED to correspond with your own Doc on your care....

--Then at that point, each of us will have some thinking to do....

--It will be OK if the condition is pneumonia or some such, but I can vouch for the fact that it will NOT be OK if the condition is something like a failed disc and a compressed nerve in the spine.... You MUST have a specialist for some of the things that happen to us.

When you or your loved on is in severe pain is not the time to guess....some of this we must now know in advance, for our own sakes and some peace of mind.
