I too am sick. I am sick of doctors taking advantage of a gullible old woman and a delirious old man to torture my father to death. He deserves very little, but he deserves a better death than he is getting from them. Any human being does.

I am sick of the practice of medicine bearing more resemblance to "The Old Woman Who Swallowed A Fly" than to anything any rational person would voluntarily choose.

And I am sick of "religions" of all kinds (doctrines that theirs is the One True Belief System) that would rather destroy a thing than learn about it.
I here you! And I am sorry i didn't respond earlier. They are torturing my mother in law as well. She is on I think 9 different drugs at 3 times a day! And she has no idea what any of them do! She says to keep her alive but at the same time they seem to be making her forget who she is. @ 83 and still living on her own I worry that all these meditcations are stealing what is left of her. That may seem harsh to some but seriously all these meds and she hasn't a clue what they are for? Granted my sister in law is watching out for her but after loosing her daughter a few years ago to Huntington's at age 21 she is kinda done and is just maintaining my mother in law. Even she doesn't know what they are all for. Sad.
