It has been months since I haven't posted. I had several rants with the health system, beginning with my lower back problems. The good news is that finally I've been getting better by exercising and diet.
I had some travel to South America, and again I still get surprised how doctors in other countries CARE about their patients, they are not a number like in the US. Poor countries like Brazil have doctors that will see you within the hour and treat you like a person, unlike my experience with several doctors in Florida.
It is not uncommon that several people die in US Hospitals for medical negligence and little by little the stories are coming out.
Finally I went to watch SICKO and went out so happy and so sad: happy to see I'm not the only one that realizes the sad state of the healthcare system, happy that finally somebody is doing something and sad because everything the movie showed is true, and being the most powerful country in the world we still are being "cheated" when health is on the line.
I hope more and more people realizes that we need to do something, that we are not alone and we CAN do something, I love this country and feel bad to see that a few corrupted people are letting good hardworking americans suffer a bad life and horrible death when they actually could be cured if they only knew...
