Wasted Time
Only one pharmacy open for 50 miles around and we just sat waiting more than an hour to get a simple prescription filled

Medical Care In The U.s.
IMHO, medical care in the United States is AMAZING. A family member had outpatient surgery to implant two stents in their chest this morning, is on their way home now, and cleared to fly away on vacation this Friday. My daughter’s stroke treatment, therapy and recovery was equally AMAZING (and frankly, fascinating).
But I find medical administration (presumably due to insurance requirements?) in this country to be ABYSMAL. I suspect most medical staff are overworked, but with treatment provided by 4 or more organizations I find they can pass the buck faster than the government, and simply do not communicate well.
Case in point… MercyCare uses “My Chart” software and I love it. UIHC also uses “My Chart”, but the two are entirely different things (same software, different “systems”) and don’t share any information. Chaos rules.
Reauthenticate Github
So, this morning, I found that some of my recent posts coming from my iPhone did not go through in Drafts, apparently because my GitHub credentials had expired. Once I’m able to post this draft, I will add a blog post documenting how I got back here.
