Great pictures! I didn’t remember seeing any.
Wow! I had no idea there were so many photos of Baby Isaiah floating around. Isn’t he adorable?
Thank you for sharing that story of love. Very heartwarming.
What a sweet little baby!
Thanks for posting the pictures. What a sweet baby! May God protect and bless him and his parents.
A hero.
ya know Government health care does not treat the individual, they treat the group..old people..why bother?? My mother may be 89, but she looks and acts like a woman in her 60s..until a year ago she was doing curves 3 times a week.. until this attack she had her own home and cared for her garden , and had an active social life..
We kids have taken over and made her come home..
The old and the imperfect are just too expensive ...life now has a price tag on it
I remember last year when Natasha Richardson (Liam Neeson’s) wife died after she fell skiing in Canada. There were some problems because she thought she was okay, but once problems developed the local hospitals simply didn’t have the equipment necessary to treat her. She was airlifted to NYC, but it was too late by then.
I’m not saying that she would have definitely lived if the injury occurred in America, but she would have had a much better chance.
Most canadians like it because they can see a doctor at no cost...(except VERY high taxes )
But the care there is 1960-70 care.. with the added burden of no specialists. I am a nurse and I was appalled with the level of medical care.. the staff tries but they do not know any different either
The problem is that doctor’s offices are incredibly overcrowded because people will go to the doctor for minor things (colds, etc.) that we would just use OTC medication for. In many (probably most) cases when a middle-aged American is diagnosed with a heart disease they can be treated and live a fairly normal life, in Canada it is also a death sentence.
From a fiscal point of view, Canada also has a HUGE advantage that America doesn’t. Their defense spending requirements are FAR LOWER than ours are. They have the benefit of knowing that they are protected simply because of their proximity to the USA. American defense spending is approximately 4% of GDP, Canada’s is just over 1%. This alone gives them a savings of over $50 billion per year and their population is only 34 million.
Has it come down to “your money or your life” yet?
Excellent link!
I agree; Godless people are. It’s a shame there are so many of them.
