Ross Perot was the reason he wasn’t elected.

I voted for Reagan twice, HW twice, Jr. once, and then I saw the light.

And Ross Perot was there because Bush broke his promise.
Read my lips. No new taxes.
Besides. You don't remember the late 80's.
Except for the public records of course.

Sorry to put this here but I don't have any other outlet and it's about to kill me.
I had my regular CT scan on the aneurysm in my brain and it has grown significantly in the last three years. My neurologist has referred me to an Interventional Radiologist who he believes can treat it without surgery. I presume he is talking about inserting a stent into the artery.
I have a high deductible policy and have unfortunately met my max oop for this year and was not planning on significant medical costs next year. But because this was detected so late in the year, we probably will not be able to get it cone this year and it will cost me and extra $6700. It was detected so late in the year because my neurologist postponed my appointment that was made a year in advance, not once but twice.
So the guy who was on the cover of Richmond Magazine as the Best Doctor in Richmond told me that I have a serious medical condition that needs immediate treatment but because I postponed your appointment twice, it's going to cost you an extra $6700.
And avoid stress or you may have a stroke.
&%$ THE &%$ING MEDICAL WORLD!!!

It's not worth trying anything legal.
I really like the Dr. and he really is the best. He listens and gives his patients the time and attention they need. That's why I always forgive the occasional postponement or running late in the afternoon. Because he's giving all his patients the same thing I get. My needs were up until now, really simple so when they asked to postpone I know it's because someone else needs his care worse. But twice and then leaving me up against the calendar like that...
I'll see him tomorrow and explain the situation to him personally in the hopes that he will personally intervene with the interventionist and get me in there as the ball drops.
I may have to give up smoking, though. Edibles are going to take a while to get the hang of after 49 years of smoking.

So the aneurysm that has resided quietly in my basalar tip for who knows how long has doubled in size since it was last viewed in July 2015. Now what events may have occurred with that time frame to cause increased internal pressure in the blood vessels in my brain? &%$ing Trump!!!
Now that we have identified the disorder and determined the cause, the next step is to give it an initialization. I'm going with TIA-g for Trump Induced Aneurysm-Growth. People with fresh aneurysms can have the TIA but they need to make sure that no one mistakes it for the other TIA, the Transient Aschemic Attack which is the next step.
This lays the ground work for a government assistance program for victims of TIA and TIA-g along with some pharmaceuticals with some really good side effects that are advertised by the chocolate lab that got laid off from the Otezla ads.

About three years ago a doctor I saw about ab issues sent me for an ab ultrasound. They found a huge gallstone and the $)@ didn't tell me about it. I found out 5 months later when I had to go in an ambulance to the ER. Because I was so sick with that for so long, I stopped absorbing B12 which went undetected until I insisted on a simple blood test. A rapid series of shots sent my levels from 0 to normal and returned oxygen to my blood that allowed me to stop losing 2 pounds per day and not die.
Oh yeah. Throw in a total blockage of blood to my right lung by a PE and two severe compressions in my cervical spinal cord with surgery.
All, imo, because of that $)@ $)@ doctor.
Lawyers said I had a case that would pay about $500,000 but that it would cost about $75,000 to bring it to trial some years down the road and that would have to be payed up front. No contingencies allowed on medical malpractice in VA. Lawyers protecting doctors from their victims. A highly professional stacking of the deck.
I filed a report with the medical review board. They did an investigation and found nothing because I gave up on &%$ing with that guy. There's nothing but work and grief in it for me. Once again with the stacked deck.
So I focused on getting better and I have. I could whoop your fat Okie %^$ in the gym!
