Cancer Patient and ObamaCare Critic Says He"s Being Audited by IRS


A cancer patient, who publicly discussed the cancellation of his insurance under ObamaCare, now says he has been informed by the Internal Revenue Service that he is going to be audited.


Bill Elliot appeared on Fox News on November 7th to discuss the cancellation of his insurance. He claims he was told that his cancer was considered “beyond the catastrophic previous condition” and his plan was being canceled because of ObamaCare regulations.


Elliot, who has Stage 4 cancer, informed viewers he wasn’t going to pay the $ 1,500 a month for the new plan being offered, preferring not to burden his family and to “let nature take it’s course.”


After his story attracted media attention, Elliot says his insurance company decided to let him keep his coverage:


“Well, the update on my health is: I went to the doctor last week and he told me that I was in full remission. So, that’s good news; I’m getting better. Thanks to Steve, I wouldn’t have found none of this out, ’cause I wouldn’t have had health insurance to go back. So, I found out that I’m in full remission and that I’ve got four months to go – not four months to go, but be checked every four months.


“So, Monday I got a certified letter. I didn’t get my mail until late, so this past Tuesday I went and picked it up. Lo and behold, it’s from the IRS saying, “You’re going to be audited for the tax year of 2009.”

Autopsy Planned in Shooting of Alzheimer"s Patient


CHICKAMAUGA, Ga. — An autopsy has been scheduled for a 72-year-old Alzheimer’s patient who was shot after authorities say he wandered into a darkened yard in Georgia.

Sheriff’s officials say Ronald Westbrook had walked about three miles in sub-freezing temperatures, then knocked on 34-year-old Joe Hendrix’s door just before 4 a.m. Wednesday.

They say Hendrix went into the backyard of the home he rented in the Chickamauga area, confronted Westbrook and fired his handgun four times at the man. No charges have been filed.
 



Walker County Coroner W. Dewayne Wilson said Friday in a statement to The Associated Press that the autopsy is scheduled for Saturday at the Georgia Bureau of Investigation lab in Atlanta.
 


Walker County Sheriff Steve Wilson has said he had no doubts that Hendrix felt threatened during the encounter.

Missing patient found dead in hospital stairwell two weeks later











DeliciousPin It

(NaturalNews) By now, the news of that woman found dead in a San Francisco hospital stairwell after being missing for two weeks has had its day and maybe even worn out its news “legs.” But the questions raised have legs of their own.

The questions concerning how it happened open a can of worms regarding hospital care issues that may make you think twice before checking into any hospital.


Just in case you missed it, here’s a summary of that incident. 57-year-old Lynn Spalding, an English woman living in San Francisco, checked into the San Francisco General Hospital late September with what was reported as an infection.

Amazingly, none of the press items online describe the infection, not even if it was external or internal, disease or injury infection. Just that she was being treated for an infection.


Friends who had visited her in the hospital two days prior to her disappearance said she was thin, frail, confused and disoriented, possibly from medications.


Although her room was reportedly checked every 15 minutes, she disappeared with her purse but left her cell phone behind. There’s no statement of when a search was initiated, but friends and neighbors had begun posting missing person signs in the neighborhood.


Two weeks later, a dead body was found in a rarely used stairwell by someone doing a quarterly check of the fire exit door at the bottom of that stairwell. [1]


Though not immediately confirmed, there was enough information to deduce it was Lynn. An interesting side note is that the fire escape door that opened to the hospital grounds is locked from the outside.


Is that so people can come in when there’s a fire? Most fires escape doors can be opened from within and set off alarms when opened.


This apparent lapse of attention and care in a modern medical institution complex is not an isolated case.


In the USA, adverse event reporting is voluntary. It’s not required. So any sense of guilt can be covered by not reporting. Even if a medical professional cares, the paperwork may be too distracting from hectic hospital activities.

This is the way it is with vaccinations, chemotherapy, whatever. If someone dies or gets ill from an allopathic intervention, the disease or some sort of complication is often cited as the cause, not the treatment itself.


One report claims there are just under 100,000 hospital adverse events from preventable errors in America annually. That’s with the current “voluntary” adverse event reporting system. So there are probably many more that aren’t reported at all. [2]


Those statistics are the outcome of a voluntary reporting system reported by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality Patient Safety Indicators. A new system, the Global Trigger Tool shows an even worse record.


Global Trigger has determined that up to 90% of adverse events are unreported, and “generally, overall adverse events occur in one out of three hospital admissions.” (Emphasis added) [3]


Let’s face it, when you’re in a hospital, you’re at the mercy of a system that is at least the third highest cause of death in America, behind heart disease and cancer. [4]


And the first and second causes of death are often exacerbated by the third, our forced allopathic health care system.


Include inferior-quality hospital food and being awakened often to check if your liver is managing to hold up with all those toxins forced on you. A lack of good sleep and unhealthy, dead food are not conducive to full recovery, especially when you get those outrageous medical bills.

Therapeutic Chiropractic Adjustments Help Leg Pain Sufferers Find Relief In Berwyn

Sciatica affects up to three percent of adults. It can cause severe, persistent pain throughout the whole length of the leg. Although medications and injections can help to manage the symptoms, they do not resolve the underlying problems. A Berwyn chiropractor uses spinal adjustments to provide a safe, effective, drug-free solution for sciatica pain.

The sciatic nerve starts at the lower spinal column and travels through the pelvic bones and down the length of both legs. It is the longest nerve in the human body, so if it becomes pinched or irritated, the symptoms are widespread. Sciatica sufferers often experience sharp, shooting pains between the buttocks and feet. They may also feel burning, cramping or tingling sensations in thighs and calves.

Sciatica ultimately derives from disorders of the lower spine. Most cases are due to a herniated disc. When the outer layer of a disc ruptures, the gel center can bulge out and press on the sciatic nerve. Sciatica can also be caused by misaligned vertebrae compressing bundles of nerves in the spinal cord.

During their initial visit to the Berwyn chiropractic clinic, sciatica patients are thoroughly assessed. The doctor goes over details of their symptoms before performing a physical examination. He then conducts neurological and orthopedic tests. MRI scans help to pinpoint the constriction in the sciatic nerve.

The chiropractor uses gentle manual adjustments to restore vertebrae to the correct alignment and increase the space surrounding the spinal cord. This relieves pressure on the sciatic nerve, eliminating the source of the pain. Following spinal manipulation, the doctor uses deep massage to soothe aching leg muscles, release tension and increase mobility.

After the sciatica is resolved, the Berwyn chiropractor guides patients through a rehabilitation and recovery program. Therapeutic exercises are used to increase flexibility, strengthen muscles, and improve posture. Patients are also taught ways to maintain their spinal health and prevent the recurrence of sciatica pain.

Chiropractic care alleviates leg, spine and arm pain naturally. Find more information about a reliable Berwyn chiropractor at http://www.creativechiropracticsolutions.com right now.
