The society can't afford to pay top hi-tech treatment for everybody. USA chose much for somebody, Canada not so much for everybody. We in <A HREF="http://lsminsurance.ca" REL="nofollow">Toronto life insurance brokers</A> naturally believe in private insurance, at least as an option. Iy's the only way how to avoid this - "In 2007, waiting lists for access to health care in Canada reached a new all-time high of 18.3 weeks from a general practitioner referral to treatment by a specialist; this wait time is 54 percent longer than the overall wait time of 11.9 weeks back in 1997."<BR/>Best wishes!<BR/>LorneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13263155.post-89439089651403239062008-07-04T15:14:00.000-05:002008-07-04T15:14:00.000-05:00So the question is begged- do you have a living wi...So the question is begged- do you have a living will/medical power of attorney?<BR/>I fought my family over putting in a feeding tube to my dad. He was near the end.It was very noisy and limited his movement even to the window- stuffing him into a bed with few visitors. I disagreed on the placement- but since he had designated years before that it might be a good thing- there it was. Very sad.<BR/>I am putting together mine right now- the question is - do I have a child who will follow my wishes even if hey do not agree with the Church?Janettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10054888725603183006noreply@blogger.com
