 ml> i believe that you've misread what bjorn was attempting to say... i
 ml> didn't take is as medicare like many americans think of it... i took
 ml> it as an abbreviated form of saying medical care...

 RW> Since he called it a system, it was obviously another slam on the
 RW> US health care system.

sorry... i don't believe that he meant it like that... his spelling was
mediC-care... with a C in there...

 ml> no matter, anyway, as i _don't_ go to see any kind of medical persons
 ml> unless i'm really really really hurting and have no other choice...

 RW> So, you want to die young...See the doctors, get second and even
 RW> third opinions, then consider the treatment vs living with it.

no, i don't want to die young... however, i've seen too many problems with too
many folk who blindly followed doctor's advise... even my father tells his
doctor that he, my father, is there to get advise and (additional) information
which he will then decide upon... my father has stopped taking numerous
medicines the doctors told him he had to have... his stopping of these
medicines has lead to numerous good things... the first is that he now has an
extra amount of $$$ each month... he was experiencing various aches and joint
troubles that have been attributed to several of the medicines he was taking...
stopping them has alleviated those pains... another item of interest that may
also be of interest is that he now also has dreams that he can remember (they
stopped when he started on the medicines but i don't know which one(s)) as well
as having the ability of being sexually active without any additional drugs...
his eyesight has also improved as well as his hearing and taste... this all
since he stopped taking all the artifical chemical laden crap being foisted off
on folk too ignorant to know better...

 ml>> that was two months ago :(

 ml>> can't afford it...

 RW>> Go to a free clinic.

 ml> no such thing around here... they all want at least $50 at the end of
 ml> the visit... kinda hard to do that when you've been out of work for 2
 ml> months or more and things have tightened up quite a bit...

 RW> Then you better get yourself down to the SS office and sign up for
 RW> SSI. That's for a disability, not social security. Once you're on
 RW> that, apply for state aide, that'll help buy groceries and will
 RW> help you with medical needs. If they give you food stamps, reserve
 RW> the peanut butter for me. 

hehehe, yeah, right! that'll be the first thing to go O:)

 ml>> will not allow surgery...

 RW>> That's not Medi-cares fault or prolem.

 ml> wrong medic-care (note the spelling)...

 RW> There's no such entity. There is a medi-care system though.

bjorn didn't appear to me to be attempting to point at any particular entity...

 ml>  and even so, why do you think they call what doctors and laywers do
 ml> "practise" :)

 RW> Because one cannot become a professional in an ever changing
 RW> science. Only the basics are set in stone, the rest is not.

hahaha.... riiiight... no, it is because they can only practise... what's that
old saying? practise makes perfect? well, they need all the practise they can
get O:)  i'll consider going to see them once they complete practising and
actually have some real skills :) :) :) :) :)

 ml>>  and absolutely will not commit fraud by lying to them and telling
 ml>> them that i will pay for it when i know that i can't and won't be
 ml>> able to if/when i am able to return to work...

 RW>> Then you have no bitch coming. You should apply for welfare and
 RW>> state aide, where you can then get medical treatment for your back.
 RW>> It will even cover a bone doctor to help you.

 ml> i suppose that's possible... however, i've not seen anything
 ml> regarding anything like that as a possibility...

 RW> Look into SSI.

i'll give it some thought and do some research...

 RW>> Easy home remedy. Make yourself a shoulder harness that will
 RW>> support you under the arms while you hang from a doorway. A few
 RW>> minutes will work wondrs.

 ml> tell me about it :)

 RW> I'm not talking about hanging yourself to commit suicide. Hanging
 RW> yourself in the above manner will allow your pelvis and legs to
 RW> stretch the backbone enough to give you some relief. Don't tie it
 RW> around your neck and jump off a chair though. :o)

ROTFL!! no, i know that... i actually had something for that some years back
but i think my boys found it and were using it for some "torture" games years
back...
