God Bless America!

This country is, increasingly, nothing but a total farce.


The PTA and the Physical Therapist have finished their home visits to my father.
They convinced themselves that he was stronger.  And so they smugly smiled and said goodbye.


After all, their system of accounting told them that all was well---one, might hasten to add:  in this best of all possible health systems.

Unfortunately, my father has more difficulty than ever before when it comes to simply:  getting out of bed or getting up from his chair!  He is at risk every time he gets up.  Where did all of his strength and progress go?


Beats me.  But I'll tell you this:  for some reason I think of the system of accounting that made possible the  present economical crisis, and the fact that the USA educational system has a screwed up system of evaluating students.  There seems to be a general pattern here.  Lots of " proof" that we are making progress, and, at the same time we are going backwards......
