Doctors are now the third largest leading cause of death in Canada. So much for the Hippocratic Oath, huh?

This is what you necessarily get when health care is free.

For the past eight years, Jolene Van Alstine has suffered from a rare form of parathyroid disease, normocalcemic primary hyperparathryroidism (nPHPT), that causes extreme bone pain, nausea and vomiting.

“Every day I get up and I’m sick to my stomach and I throw up and I throw up,” Van Alstine said.

She has been pleading for help getting surgery to remove her remaining parathyroid gland. But currently there is no Saskatchewan surgeon able to perform the operation.

Van Alstine said she must be referred out of province, but she can’t obtain a referral without first being seen by an endocrinologist — and none of them are accepting new patients.

Van Alstine said the pain has become so unbearable that she has applied and been approved for MAID.

MAID is the assisted suicide kit. Thank goodness, she can get that but not actual help, huh?

This is not health care, this is death dealing.

Thank God for Glenn Beck.

He’s finding a doctor in the US that will be willing to peform the surgery. And he’s dealing with the White House to get her a passport. Amazing.
