Out of concern for the public at large,
I withheld the statistics on lawyers
for fear the shock would cause
people to panic and seek medical attention :D

"Guns don't kill people, doctors do."


Sure do. My father-in-law was in the hospital last year. Needless to say did not make it out. The doctor prescribed pain reliever and he says "mistakenly overdosed" my father in law. They tried to retract the medication and it did not work. Well, there was nothing we could do because my father in law was 74. Wow, they can get away with anything can't they?

So, are we gonna outlaw Drs.????


LOL!

[Brandli5]

No,

But we are going to pray for them, so they can make good judgements, and make less mistakes!!

I tell you they need it.
