HPV-16 cancer is on the ballot this time around. You wouldn’t know it because there’s no hoopla, but it’s there. Sometimes it’s here, sometimes it’s there, but most of the time it’s a mystery. But, dear readers, as you know, cancer of any kind is a hard road to travel. What are my cancer talk […]
WOMEN’S HEALTHCARE, A PORTLAND STORY
August 1, 2024 by
Women’s healthcare is just another story if you’re not a woman, don’t know any women, if there are no women in your life? Does that sum things up for you, or does it sound far fetched? Everybody has women in their lives at some point. Just ask your mom, your grandma, your sister, your wife, […]
HEALTH JOURNEY ON A ROUGH ROAD
May 2, 2024 by

HEALTHCARE BULLY PREYS ON THE WEAKEST
July 22, 2017 by
Any coherent healthcare bully debate needs to go beyond the numbers, the insurance companies. Beyond drug company research and development that puts the BIG in Big Pharma.
