Just put a picture in here to see how it works.
I feel compelled to write this.
I read Debis Diatribes diary about a nurse following policy. http://www.dailykos.com/...
I agree that more info would have been helpful regarding DNR status and whether the resident even needed an ambulance ride.
Why a media outlet would even cover a story without knowing any details is what drives me crazy about our society these days.

I struggle to describe my loathing of our private profit health care system.
I also am an RN and do care deeply for the profound suffering of my family, loved ones and neighbors sacrificing their hard earned moneys to a system that is going to get paid whether they live or die.
I will be 60 in April and have decided to designate myself as an organ donor and a Do Not Resuscitate patient.
My "Living Will" advanced directive is very direct and my sweetheart of 30 years and my children are willing to follow my directives which in essence state that if I am unconscious and unable to respond to questions and consents they are to leave me alone until such time as I wake and give consent or expire.
Continued below the great orange croissant. ( I am enjoying writing that)

I understand that the thuglicans and Joe Lieberman ditched the "public option" for health care, is there a will out there to push Barack to provide "Medicare for All" in these ridiculous negotiations of the sequester
