In 2002, my beautiful wife suffered a stroke that left her with a difficut brain injury and a bipolar personality disorder.
This has made her life very erratic. She is a beacon of light one moment and a sickly child the next, but I love her too death.
Because of her sensitivities, she is often sick and has to seek medical attention. Because she is a high functioning mental patient, the doctors claim to know the cause is predominantly mental in nature.
I understand that. Because of this fact, she is often left waiting for hours at the hospital. I am not a fool. I understand triage medicine but using stalling tactics to make some sort of statement about outpatient care use on a mental patient is just plain stupid. She wont learn that lesson and all it does is show the flaws in our medical system.
