Hi K, i have asked

""think back on all the occasions you can remember of friends and family being involved with our health care system...were there positive outcomes ...or all negative??What is the ratio??""

On the question i have received negatives,only, from you and Ichy.I know those big hospital doors are swinging both ways 24/7 365 and i know the positives far outweigh the negatives.I guess generally we are wired to see only the negatives...we are also all destined to die, which our health care system trys to delay.Because we all must die at a certain time, should blame always fall on the system and the people on the front lines??I have said in other posts,it is far from perfect and can be made better, and we should not be complacent but we also must take personal responsibility to keep at it until you have a family doctor,see him regularly,lay down those test numbers for him, so that he and you, can act early to avoid those disasters of which you speak.<gg>
