Theres only one Big Flaw to your Thinking . These People are In charge of your Health or Death which ever you would like to think of it . So with your thinking we can have an Oil Changer in charge of what happens to your health or death . Which ever comes first .
So next time you or your family member is in Dior Need of good Medical advice and this person dies because of Incompetance due to the Hospital hiring Incompetant People so they can increase thier profit Margin ,HMMMMMMMM . I see alot of Problem with your way of thinking . Dear . You better do some rethinking of Priorities on whats important to you . I wil ltake Quality Health Care over BS any Day Sweety . I had to be a Professional Everyday ,I expect the same of all . We are not Slinging Hamburgers here are we ????? Geo

Geo, I think her daughter and I both meant that we treat doctor's like they are better than we are, and that is not the case at all, they are human and make mistake's and are not perfect and all knowing, and some of them are good and some are sure not. trust me I have had both kind.

hi geo
some who are experts in there field and of higher education think they are better than others,its also down to the type of person they are.
if a doctor is a naturally friendly person it will show in how he treats his patients,the not so friendly ones have a cold nature about them.
this can be said of anyone not just proffesionals.

that is why i love animals so much,you know were you are with them and they are great judge of character.
daisy loves everyone except a man who lives two doors down,hes a slimey weasel and she knows it and will run in if she see's him.

no one is better than anyone else,we are all equal in gods eyes and thats what counts.

Cool Re: Beware of what goes on at your next Doc. Visit

When i make a Comment ,i have no intention of attacking someone . If you know where im coming from, you can have a better understanding of why i make the comments i make . So going back to 1974 my very best friend and brother inlaw came down with a very rare disease (Wegeners Granulomastosis ) he lasted 6 months ,if he would have gotten the right care he would have been here today . Being he got very bad care he died . Mayo Clinic told my Sis if we could have gotten him sooner we could have saved his life . The Doctor in charge did not read his chart which had he is alergic to Penicylin
they Administered it and this started a Roller coaster affect ,he spiralled down hill after this . The doctor Said sending him to Mayo was overkill .So he killed him instead . Which brings us to me ,my second Doctor after 1/2 hr. of exam told my wife and i I was going to die within 2 years ,this is before running any tests ,only to find out later the next week after tests ,i do not have ALS . we saw him after tests on the elevator and said well the tests say im fine and dont have ALS ,at that he says I know you have it and i stand behind what i said . I called the Hospital Administrator and said do you always tell patients their going to die before tests are done . He said at that what do you want us to do ?I said what did you say ? And yes i do want him fired or i will press charges against this Hospital . At that the next week i went to Mayo ,where i was treated like gold . I have no intention of upsetting anyone here, but i will always tell the truth ,im not a Politically correct person . Geo

hi geo.
i never take anything you say the wrong way,i always know exactly were your coming from. your a really nice man and a friend.

i can write many stories of people who have died at my local hospital over the years from medical blunders.
my own,i have a disabled left arm from an accident i had aged 10.
they said it was not broken and i suffered for 6yrs,then aged 16 they looked at the origional xrays and said sorry it was
they said i would loose the use of my arm but i still have some use in it,its horribly difformed though.

aged 23 i was dx with early cervical cancer after 8months insisting something was wrong.
the doctor thought it was nothing,irritable bowel or hormones.........she was in a worse state than me when the results came back and she realised her mistake.

they like us are only human,yes they should take some responsibility when there mistakes cause mental or physical injury.............but sadly they do get away with it.

chin up buddy,we all love you

The picture is so cute. I called my mom when my guy was young, you always need your mom. I think technology is so awesome, so neat how we can communicate. Hope your little gal is feeling better. It sounds like you spoil all the ladies in your life. Keep on doing that you OLD SOFTY.
