Hey Krista!
You were complaining because you cared about your mother!  Nothin' wrong
with that!  What gets me is all the complaining I do about the American
form of health care!  I had the angiogram on Thursday of last week and I
saw the surgeon today (4/16).  He was going to schedule the surgery for
Friday but I talked him into this coming Monday!
Of course, the draw back is that my insurance may decide that he charges
too much and I will have to pay back a lot of money to him.
So, I guess it's a toss up slow, free medical treatment -- versus fast,
expensive medical treatment.  Today I'm glad it's fast!
BTW -- I'll be having double coronary artery bypass surgery and the
mitral valve will be replaced with a mechanical one.  I'll be in the
hospital they tell me for a week and then three months at home
recuperating.  God willing, I shall return soon!  Best wishes for your
mother.  I hope she gets the help she needs!!
