| I've never been a patient in the hospital period, and don't plan to. | |

| Yes, I had a bleeding ulcer and didn't realize I had a problem until I couldn't stand up, had to crawl to the bedroom to get dressed that morning . Went to the ER (here in Canada its free)they immediately admitted me and hoped to stop the bleeding but during the night that worsened. They gave me 4 units of blood before they operated on me and 3 units after. I spent 7 days in ICU before they sent me to a regular ward. I might also add that none of that cost us a cent, in the US it would have ruined us financially. | |

Oh, but didn't you know, socialized medicine doesn't work.
Or at least that's what our politicians (who get free med coverage for life) tell us. | |
