A Shout Out to Angelina Jolie

This woman has made a statement for all human kind.

 

My wife and daughter have both been stricken and overcome this dreadful disease. My daughter asked her medical doctor to perform preventative surgery twice. On the cancer threat and the BRCA1 gene she inherited from my wife and her family the doctor played GOD and denied her. It was less than four years later that she found her cancer and had the surgeries and the chemotherapy. The chemotherapy at the least could have been avoided and the trauma and fear inflicted on her young children could have been avoided.

The medical and insurance communities need to grow up and not be smug about their role in the lives of their patients

Thank you Angelina.

The time is now.
