Absolutely unbelievable:
“The growth rate mostly slowed as millions of Americans lost insurance coverage along with their jobs. Worried about job security, others may have feared taking time off work for doctor’s visits or surgical procedures, or skipped nonurgent care when money was tight. ” —
This quote is from a NY Times article titled “Hopeful Sign, Health Spending is Flattening Out” ?????
It’s hopeful that people don’t have insurance or are afraid to take time off for doc appointments for fear of losing their jobs???
All I can say is something is very wrong in a society that celebrates such a thing. But I already knew that, did you?

An author, a teacher, a candlestick maker? I am lucky enough to have followed my muse through a most eclectic life of many careers, many interests, and many friends and liasions. Two beautiful children, now grown and one their own, several books -- the penultimate accomplishment dream come true, a hores trainer, a college professor, and a stint in corporate America to validate my feelings that I never, ever want to go there again. So I donned my ruby slippers and dared to take those different paths, those diverging paths, and that has made all the difference! (Thank you, Robert!)
