            What a difference when someone takes the time- against all opposition- to care.
          • Hot!
            If only all real doctors cared this much about their patients and sought out true diagnoses and cures.

            The title "Awakenings" refer to the new life obtained by patients suffering from chronic diseases after consuming the currently developed drug, L-dopa. These patients were able to walk and speak like they used to be. They were just regained 'consciousness' after their still lives.

              Eky @MadSam472 you said it all my friend. I couldn't agree more. I just can't help imagining those unfortunate people who have to fight for their lives waiting for the procedure.

              John M Bitowt Jr It's like the joke, "The patient that couldn't pay his bill so his Dr. gave him a different diagnosis, one with a longer life range, at least until the bill was paid" , I forgot the joke, sorry @Eky, it was really good. I agree, without insurance or cash people are dying over profits, what about that oath that the Drs. take??? Look at the price of some meds, heart meds, things to live on, things that help a person get through the day, are totally over priced.
