But, I am not complaining – not at all. Occasionally you will see ... ...

DBS / MedicationsI am not trying to be ‘smart’, but rather, trying to get your attention. They say a good title will do that, so I’m trying. A few days ago, I received a note from a gentleman who had just lost his father in-law to negligence within the medical community. I say negligence, because basically, that’s ... ...

If your world is ... ...
