So glad you are feeling better, but we've all been at the "I give up" stage. I wish you were Canadian and didn't have to go through this. While BOTH medical systems have their problems, at least in Canada you don't have to deal with cancer and financial issues. From what I have seen of the care, I believe the Canadian system is comparable to the U.S. - only major difference is wait times - which, I agree, could be critical to prognosis. But, we're Canadian and patient - so we wait!

The sun will shine again. Some days it doesn't feel like it but suddenly you are at a day when you think...boy this is nice...and then you now you have found that time you were waiting for.
