We do chemotherapy only if she's poor? Add the bone marrow transplant if her parents have a house to sell to raise the dough (they are now homeless as a family but hey, the healthcare is paid for), or throw out all the stops if she happens to come from a family with few financial concerns?

You want to be on that death panel?

County Hospitals, www.shrinershospital.org, Ronald McDonald House etc etc. No need for a death panel unless this gets passed. See England's example of patients drinking from flower vases, sitting in their own waste for a preview of what would be; only on a much larger scale.

If we were REALLY concerned with healthcare, our entire country would be single payer, with all citizens valued and treated equally within the healthcare system.

Dell - what do you think of this tale?

I think it's horrible but she’s terribly naive to think the government would do a better job. I've told you before about my friend Lester who lost his leg (just above the knee) in Viet Nam yet has to report to the VA every few years to prove he's still disabled? Efficiency at its best. Of course I guess the leg might grow back. lol
