More From the Health Care Dept.

This is yet another: "REALLY?" Of which there are many when dealing with western medicine. My moms doctor prescribed an internal injection of Botox...yep, Botox...to numb the lower part of her esophagus. In those moments when i hear things like that I tend to have inappropriate reactions like wanting to laugh or cry. It's so flippin' surreal. And, like most other humans who believe that they are doing the 'right' thing, those docs are walking around thinking their actions are of benefit to their patients. Who is to say, really. Hmmmm, what a human conundrum.
