I HAVE A DEFECTIVE "A" KEY ON MY KEYBOArd -- but it is working -
*****
i need to talk to anne aBOUT HEALTH CARE IN DENMARK I KNOW WHEN I WAs in scotland- i had a laceration that needed sewing up and i went all armed with my international heaLTH INSURANCE CArd identification etc...- and they didn't want it. they didn;t even aSK IF I WAS A STUDENT ... i gave my name- they sewed it up and i left...medical condition all under control- no paPEWORK INVOLVED..
why do we have a huge industry between patient and medical care? and is the insurance industry a by product of the legal "industry" ?--
ok.... my english friend-- from scotland-- living in ireland---- GWEN-- WAS IN A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT WHER HER ARM WAS BROKEN YEARS AGO-WHEN IT HEALED, IT HEALED NOT QUITE STRAIGHT-- I DON'T THINK SHE EVER CONSIDERED SUINIG THE MEDICAL PROFESSION FOR A BENT ARM... ( SHE READS THIS -- I WILL BE HORRIFIED IF SHE EMAILS ME AND TELLS ME DIFFERENTLY)- CERTAINLY IN THE STATES A LAWYER WOULD HAVE HAD A FIELD DAY FOR THE SLIGHT BEND IN HER ARM...
I DON'T KNOW HOW I WOULD DEAL WITH THE PROBLEM OF THE MEDICAL PROFESSION ITSELF... THEY CAN DO SO MANY THINGS- HOW DOES ONE DECIDE WHO GETS THE HEART TRANSPLANT? ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY FINALLY PUT PIGS HEARTS IN PEOPLE---- CERTAINLY NOT EVERYONE... WE HAVE TOO MANY PEOPLE NOW.. HOW WOULD YOU DECIDE? ONLY THOSE PEOPLE WHO COULD PROVE THEY HAD EATEN 150 POUNDS OF BACON??.
AND THEN THERE IS THE CONCEPT OF HOW MANY TREES WERE SACRIFICED FO R ME TO HAVE MEDICARE COVER 80% OF THE COST OF MY GETTING A FLU SHOT-- AND NOTIFYING ME THAT --- OF THE CHARGE OF $1298.00 FOR THE FLU SHOT $154 WAS APPROVED FOR THE SHOT ,$4.62 WAS APPROVED FOR THE NEEDLE AND $1.05 WAS TH E APPROVED FUEL CHARGE AND THEY HAVE PAID TEH PHYSICIAN'S OFFICE THE $127.74 AND WOULD BE BILLING MEDEX FOR THE $31.93
THE CONCEPT IS CLOESLY RELATED TO THE COST OF A STEAK DINNER MIGHT BE $24.99-- OF THAT , THE COST OF THE MEAT AND POTATOES MIGHT BE $8.22 AND TEH REST IS TEH COST MEDICAL INSURANCE AND VACATION TIME FOR THE COOK.
OUR WHOLE LIVES ARE SO DISTORTED FROM THE TRUTH OF ANYTHING IT IS NOT AMAZING THAT OUR ENTIRE CONGRESS TODAY WILL BE TIED UP WITH WHO SENT WHAT COMMUNICATION TO WHOM AND WHEN... THEN WHY..
THERE IS NO HOPE...
I HOPE IT DOES NOU UPSET MR. MOON WHO IS SENDING THE HARNESS TO US-- MAYBRE TODAY
WE NEED TO ISOLATE FUNCTIONALITY. AND "E--- LIMINATE THE NEGATIVE LATCH ON TO THE AFFIRMATIVE AND DON'T MESS WITH MISTER IN BETWEEN..."
************
ON WITH THE CALENDR SHOTS... GOTTA HAND IT TO KITTY.. SHE DOES NOT QUIT....OUT THERE INTHE COLD ROLLING SNOWBALLS INTO SNOWMEN WHILE 2 PUPS TRIED TO HELP...
WILLIAM IS DUE HERE AT 1:30-- IT IS VERY LIKE A DOCTOR SHOWING UP FOR A SURGICAL PROCEEDURE... ALL WILL DEPEND ON WILLIAM'S ARTISTIC ABILITY ... AND WE WILL ALL GIVE WAY TO HIS CONCEPTS--
HE HAS BEEN RIGHT FOR 4 YEARS AND COUNTING,,,

from Debbie: "Happy Birthday Pandora, turning 5 tomorrow!!! Doing a great job being a therapy dog for my school district. She's a rock star.
I checked Cloud's document and Pandora is a sister to Charlie, trainer Steve's dog. Their parents are Moxie & Bumpy.

I LIKED THIS CONCEPT
There is the story of a pastor who got up one Sunday and announced to his congregation: "I have good news and bad news. The good news is, we have enough money to pay for our new building program. The bad news is, it's still out there in your pockets."

WE HAD OUR OWN CAKE DAY STORY ---I HAD APPLICANTS COMING AND COULD NOT LEAVE -- SO AJAY AND JODY WENT TO GEORGETOWN AND BOUGHT CAKES FOR THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ACROSS FROM THE MARKET-- THEY WERE WELCOMED BY A FIREMAN JUST BACK FROM A FIRE WHO "HIGH FIVED" THE FACT THAT HE REALIZED IT WAS CAKE DAY AND WONDERED IF WE WOULD SHOW UP !!!
THEN GAVE SOME LIFESAVERS TO SOME POLICEMEN DIRECTING TRAFFIC AROUND THAT FIRE... THE "COP" WAS THRILLED... SO WERE AJAY AND JODY-- IT IS A FUN THING TO DO !!!

Dear Carlene,
APPRECIATION DAY - March the 19th and another visit with the firemen and firelady. Yep, that is right, firelady....she's a new addition to their family and a cutie too.
Of course we were well received or my cherry pie was. I made sure it was full and the end results was it got a little messy.
We're going to have to see what happens next month, as on April 18th I will be having surgery and if we don't go there a day or two prior, my husband will be on cake/pie appreciation day duties by himself.
I don't want to be selfish, but those that care to pray for my well being, it would be very welcome and I thank you very much.

I FORGOT TO REMIND EVERYONE ABOUT CAKE DAY FOR THE FIRE DEPARTMENTS...
WE MAY HAVE SOME NEW POELPLE WHO DON'T KNOW..
FOR NOT MUCH REASON AT ALL, TEH "SDP COMMUNITY" AROUND THE COUNTRY ( AND WORLD...) TAKE A CAKETO THEIR LOCAL FIRE DEPARTMENT ON THE 19TH OF EVERY MONTH-- LAST KNOWN--- WE COVERED 38 STATES.
AND THEN THE LIFESAVERS-- A ROLL JUST QUICKLY HANDED TO POLICE ON DUTY- GETS A BIG SMILE AND CHEERS UP WHAT IS SOMETIME S A DREARY JOB.
IT'S AN INEXPENSIVE JOY... SPREAD IT...
