A fool will think that they can cheat disease by buying a book/pill/herb/potion/ or scheme.
I totally agree ... but will add ... or by going to a doctor or expecting a doctor to "fix" them or "give" them health. It's simpler where I come from.
Best to you, C.C,

A lot of times patients are prescribed additional drugs to counteract symptoms delivered by other drugs. This can turn into a virtual prescription nightmare as one after another drug is prescribed to address even more complications.
SB ... FWIW ... I agree. It's ashame to see so many people suffering from drug side effects, only to be prescribed another pill to treat the problem that the first drug caused. It becomes a cycle. It wouldn't be so bad if this were a rare occurence, but regrettably it's all too common. I only work one day a week in the hospital now ... each time I go in, it becomes more difficult to work within that model of "health care."
I can only encourage people to take an active role in promoting health (will never give this up ... ever). My passion is fueled by my own father's medical "treatment." They basicly killed him ... botched surgery ... followed by a slew of useless pills. He was uneducated and trusting. If only one person is saved the pain that my father endured, then my efforts at health education will be worth it. Plenty do not want to listen, but I don't care ... that's their choice.
Sorry about your father ... as mentioned, he's regrettably not alone in that sort of outcome.
Best to all, C.C. (and MM ... you're right ... you don't get it)
