Thinking of that time when my dad, himself a doctor, was thrown by a horse on a trail ride. Punctured his spleen, internal bleeding, got him to an ER just in time. He lived another 20 years. With two hours delay, probably wouldn't have.
We rushed to *nearest* ER. Not comparison-shop for ER prices.

Roger Marshall: "We want patients to become consumers again. We want patients to see what the actual prices are. We believe that if we would add the price tags to this bill, that it would save the country a trillion dollars a year."

Moses was reluctant to allow the 76ers to retire his jersey. He believed winning was a team effort. Why should he be signaled out? He finally agreed to it under the condition that the 76ers stitch the name of every teammate he had in Philly around the trim of his banner.

And once again you can only shake your head and wonder how a group of people came together and decided it was a good idea to trade a player and person like this.
Mookie Betts was named winner of the prestigious Roberto Clemente Award "for his many extraordinary efforts including supporting young people in a variety of ways and helping victims of the Los Angeles fires."
The award is based on character, community involvement and philanthropy.

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation
