Ron's story is scary but not unbelievable in the slightest. The fact that we outsource everything and have so many hands in the pot certainly makes it handy for no one to be the responsible party -- <i>just following policy</i>.

I do agree with you, Patrick. Care is about choices. Life is about choices too. We all have the choice with everything that we are presented with. We might not change the outcome of it, but we do have the choice on how we will deal with it or accept it. I know things happen for a reason. Why, we may never know this side of eternity. I think how we handle the things we are given could be part of the test of life (or faith if one believes)but ultimately it does truly come down to choice.<br /><br />hope all is well with you and yours :)<br /><br />(I'm still stuck in the nightmare move where it is hard to sometimes make the choices I need to make :)<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.com
