On October 28th of last year, for better or worse, my life was completely transformed. Due to a massive infection, my left foot and ankle were amputated. Things I had taken for granted my entire life, like getting up in the morning and walking to the bathroom, were now goals to be achieved after weeks [...]
During the 2008 Election Campaign, Obama touted his plans to reform the health care system as one of his main objectives. At the time, the majority of Americans thought that reform was a good idea, and being that Obama had not revealed any details of how he was going to reform health care, they found [...]
Living with End Stage Renal Disease, or Kidney Disease, is not easy. Your body retains almost all the fluid you drink, you have to avoid certain foods to prevent deadly chemicals from building up in your blood, and to top it off you spend 12 hours a week connected to a dialysis machine which removes, [...]
America is speaking, loud and clear: WASHINGTON — Senator Arlen Specter and the health and human services secretary, Kathleen Sebelius, were heckled and booed in Philadelphia on Sunday. In Austin on Saturday, a throng of protesters enveloped Representative Lloyd Doggett, Democrat of Texas, at a supermarket where he was trying to meet constituents. They carried [...]

The Obama Administration, with the President out front and talking into every microphone he can find, is pushing two of the worst pieces of legislation ever conceived. I would have said “written,” but neither bill has been written yet; only promoted in the vaguest ways possible. Climate Change Bill: Obama worships at the feet of [...]

When the Clintons tried, it died a horrible death in the press and in the Congress due to its prohibitive costs and attempts to ration healthcare to control costs. Now, the Obama [...]
Today I went to MK Prosthetics and had the final fitting for my prosthetic leg. This, of course, involved walking on the prosthetic to make sure it fit properly and was height-adjusted correctly. So, for about 20 minutes or so today, I got to walk for the first time since the end of September. Words [...]
On April 26, 2009 I had a heart attack. What is scary about this is that I didn’t feel any pain whatsoever. In fact, the only symptom I had was constant vomiting. I thought my gastro problems had returned, however when I got to the emergency room and they got the blood tests back, they [...]
In a move that only someone with a deep-seated hatred of the men and women who risk their lives to protect our rights could dream up, Obama wants to force private insurance companies to pay for the treatment of wounded veterans with service-related injuries. The leader of the nation’s largest veterans organization says he is [...]
Well, I finally made it home and into the house without breaking something. In case you lost track, since September I have: broken my left ankle; sustained a massive infection in said left ankle; had left leg amputated below the knee; fractured my right knee; had to have a new dialysis access created in my [...]
