Posted by StuntMom on Thursday, January 04, 2007I have a friend that really needs to read this article from the New York Times.
Especially this line:
"No one should take the process of making people into patients lightly. There are real drawbacks. Simply labeling people as diseased can make them feel anxious and vulnerable — a particular concern in children. "

FromInteresting article. Thanks, StuntMom!
On a somewhat related topic, I have an exciting feeling that the issue of healthcare is going to surface with the congress of 2008!
