Medical care here is rather awful ( the poor north coast of California). You are lucky in this area to actually have a doctor. No doctors here are taking new patients unless you are on Medi-Cal and go to an Open Door clinic staffed primarily by Nurse Practitioners.

My primary physician is a PACman ! Yah, he's a Physician's Assistant - Certified. And I do like him quite a bit.
When I first met him, I asked, and he explained his qualifications quite well, and I was happy enough.
Basically, he skipped out on what he considered to be tedium, to go straight to work as an intern as doctors do.
Today, he performs all functions of an MD, yet must be 'under' some other Doctor, who has the bigger picture up on the office wall.
He's young and intelligent, computer literate (so gets all the med updates), and does not hesitate sending me to a specialist if needed.
Our treatment today has been determined by the legislature & corporate concerns, anyway. With few exceptions.
And the world is ok.
>>> Well, no, it is not. Never has been, and never will be.
It's dog eat dog out there, famine, war, pestilence and death.
I'm happy today, as most others, to see a new day with it's new challenge.
What am I gonna do to help fix it !
What a wonderful thing you have done for those children, mitigating their Mother's anguish when she got that tragic news.
Each day brings different opportunities to help someone. It's great you were there for that one !
Tomorrow may be a more difficult challenge, or one that can be taken easily in stride.
Can't hardly wait to see what it is...
Best, wheels

Blanch's post about the "helium blowup dolls" ( That's a great title for a Band? ) It made me think of Led Zeppelin's " Stairway to Heaven " song.Blanch said:What makes us happy is different on different days.......
