I've lost my peace of mind regarding my children who may have been infected while I was pregnant. I hope there is a special hell for the hospital administrators and managed-care executives that are getting rich off of our human misery. So the cuts continue. Cincinnati is getting a reputation as the tightest town in the nation for health care. Cost-cutters call it efficiency.
Patients have other words.
There I am, sitting in a recliner chair, in excruciating pain with my bare backside to that cold and uncovered chair. I was wondering whose bare butt was there before me and who would be sitting there after I had left my germs. I decided immediately to push past my pain and weakness and get out of that place. Letters, calls and e-mail keep coming. The most acute pain is despair that nothing can be done.
