I’m Simmering

     November 30th, 2008    Posted by: Tilly

I guess that sounds better than saying that I am stewing. My sister lives in Arkansas. It has been called the ‘arm pit’ in the US concerning health care. I have no idea what the life insurance rates are for people that live there, but they must be high.

She is stuck AT HOME with a severe leg infection. The doctor who saw her stated that he cannot check her into the hospital because the medicine that he wanted to give her for the cellulitis, she is allergic to. I know there is more than just one type of injectable anti-biotic available.

I do not understand all of the road blocks that she has had to face there. I just do not understand.

    Yes, it truly stinks. It’s very difficult to understand why these things happen around this time of year especially. Frankly, I’m simmering too. We went through that other leg problem in August. It should not be happening again. However, I am blessed that I have supportive family like you, Sis. And yes, Arkansas IS the armpit for health care. We don’t even have a hospital in an area that has thousands of people. The excuse is that a hospital has to be supported by medical insurance that does not include Medicare meaning there have to be enough people with standard insurance for there to be a hospital here. According to what I hear, that will not happen since this is primarily a retirement village. What a crock!!! But that’s what they say.

    I am far more than just simmering; I am boiling. I understand bad medical care for all those in need, I live in Illinois, which is right down there with Arkansas. I hope you Tilly & Jaz are both teachable and able to think outside the box. Please go to http://www.edkuniversity.com and http://www.universalenergycenter.com reading both websites. There is lots there, including the story of Shiloh a horse drug on blacktop who recovered ’cause someone thought outside the box. Anyone looking at the before & after pics needs to have a real strong stomach! I’ve been to the Energy Lodge AND the Energy Cleaner has helped me with 30 different things concerning my health!!! Lee is a whole new box for thinking in & so is the Energy Cleaner!!! I know all the information on these websites seems like it just could not be true, but I am walking & talking proof this works – somehow!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whatever you have for questions Lee would gladly answer then, and any questions about me I will gladly answer & no question is too dumb to ask!!!!!!!!! Let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

    With all due respect, Brenda, that was a commercial for those products. That actually does not help the medical situation when you can’t even get help from the doctors. Yes I know. Now I’m not thinking outside the box. I do actually. But I have been down this road before, spent money on such things. These things work situationally. It might work for you, doesn’t work for others. It is not a cure.

    Everyone is all about cleaning out the body. I agree to a certain extent. But it does NOT help specific situations. I know you are all hip hip hooray about it. I can see that. But………….the end line on this is that these things are not free. They cost serious amounts of money. I have yet to see any of them willing to give the products to someone who can’t otherwise afford it. When an outfit is willing to back it up that way, I might be interested. It isn’t because I want something free, though that would be great, it’s all about how much the company believes in the product or are they there for the money. In the end, it is ALWAYS about the money. ALWAYS.
