Sorry, folks. I gave in last night and took a pill for the pain and the results were great, except for the fact that I am now running late for an appt. and have no time for the blog posting for today. Seems like life has become this new race. No work deadline, but always an appointment. Generally, a doctor!!
Ditto for today. Perhaps tomorrow the posting will concern the new drug provisions in the new bill. A great relief to we middle economic class seniors who have found themselves inundated with drug costs, even with Medicare. When co-pays amount to hundreds, even thousands, then guess what! We hoard, taking half, every other day, whatever it takes to keep us afloat. Unfortunately, too many of us do not remain that way and are finding themselves underwater, not in real estate terms but in economic terms.
A stone has no blood, no matter how hard and how long one squeezes. We must decide as a society if we value our elders, their unused wisdom and experience, or do we place them on an ice floe and set them out to sea?
The choice is ours. Perhaps we have begun to walk the correct path. Next, medical care, good care, decent, timely care for all. Hard, difficult, costly - but so are untimely deaths, be the person young or old.
See you tomorrow - as I post whatever tickles my not so funny funny bone.
Have a great day. Gotta' run!
