I specifically wanted to reply to your post. Finally got to it. I am VERY sorry for you losses and I can empathize with you.

You just never think it’s going to be YOU who it happens to

Oldest and best friends is hard.

There are some people who see doctors all the time (I was one of them) who were perfectly healthy but hypochondriacs.

you see ENOUGH doctors you’re gonna hit trouble sooner or later.

but there is VAST incompetence out there.

Again, sorry for your losses

Both died slowly and painfully while the medicos piled procedure after procedure on them. One was under VA and the other was Medicare. One of the hardest things to see was that both were angry while they died.

I’m so sorry, and I wish I sympathize with you and empathize with them.

life hasn’t been worth much the past 10 years.

lawsuit against nyc big name doctor went terribly.

I feel your friends’ anger.

none of this had to be for any of us.

I am sorry you had to see them go in such a lousy way.

The world doesn’t have to be fair but it doesn’t have to be cruel either.

and when you give meds with pharma kickbacks or do unnecessary procedures, it’ cruel.

Next time I see a doc will be in the ICU. they’re just trouble.
