One of my best friends is Dutch, when her mother became sick, she could not get the care she needed because she was elderly. The system ignored her. They couldn't even buy care for her in Holland. The went over planning to take her to Germany where they could pay for her care but she died before they could get her there.

She had been declining for 5 years or more because of the “fabulous” Dutch healthcare system. sarcasm///>

I do think their system has changed for the worse. I’m going to ask my sister about your comment. Just disgusting that the state decides when one is expendable.

This story will be happening here if Obama gets his way. In fact, I know it’s happened in Oregon - a woman was told by the State that she couldn’t have anti-cancer drugs but that the State would pay for suicide drugs.
