After 3 years of remission, spots on my voice box began to show pre-cancerous activity. I chose to have my larynx removed and stop all the worry. But I sincerely thank you for your concern and for your support. I will be giving a "talk" at Texas Linux Fest this month in San Marcos.

One doctor claims 9 visits, but I only have 8 visits. Adjusted, with no plea of<br />guilty, explanation. Few communications with<br />patient's family.

In my country we have social care everyone, with radiotherapy and everything. My father for example got the surgery, hospital, chimiotherapy, and now the doctor revisions, TACs and everything, for free (well he paid the taxes when he wasnt't retired of course, he worked as a cooker). And the public care has much money so better equipment andbetter doctors (very difficult to enter).

Just a quick r...I will drop off a donation as well.<br />Just a quick reply to Uncle Foo about where the "riots" are for allowing "barbaric" situations like this to exist. As a foreigner living here, i can tell you that in the US, generally speaking, if it is not in the US Constitution, then it is not considered a right. It is a luxury, or something you need to carry your own financial and moral responsibility for. Health included. I am not saying that I agree with it, far from it. Like this case, like many thousands desperate cases, illnesses like cancer, diabetes, can wipe out anyone's savings in a matter of days. And then people die. However, it must be that Americans are fine with it, or there would be a push for a renewal of this broken system. And, BTW, Obamacare is not the answer either. It's a beginning, but not the solution. <br />There is no easy answer. Americans are told countless times sound bites like "The wealthiest nation on Earth" and that any suggestion like universal health coverage, like 95% of civilized countries have, at half the cost, practically equals to Communism , at this point the debate ends abruptly. I gave up years ago. There is no point to it.

However as a Canadian I can't understand we the American people allow such a barbaric situation to exist. Health care is a basic human right.
