I am a professional who has witnessed too many lives cut short or screwed up by medical errors and the medical merry go round and a Mom in her 50's keeping up with her daughter.
Most recently, my daughter's former teacher died of complications from elective knee surgery.
It was a routine operation. This 63-year-old with 3 kids entering their early 20's was getting ready to retire after over 35 years as an elementary school teacher. She had her whole life in front of her. She was teaching on Friday and dead by Monday. She had a bad knee. That's it.
It's a tragic reality. Over 250,000 people die every year as a result of medical errors, in the US alone. Barring 2020, it is the 3rd leading cause of death in the United States and it can happen with any intervention. It doesn't matter how big or small.
I personally almost lost my life after undergoing a dental implant 5 years ago. Something felt terribly wrong but my doctor dismissed me and referred me on. My surgeon told me what I was describing was impossible. It was perhaps in my head, and I should "go to an allergist". Like most patients, I felt minimized and frustrated. The pain and sickness meant I couldn't work, and it had a massive impact on my whole family.
Had I not had the knowledge of health and access to experts, you would not be reading this now.
I have connections and I know the industry.
Most people don't.
I am choosing to share my expertise, knowledge and experience, empowering others to self-heal so they can avoid procedures and have resources available so that can not only improve their quality of life, but perhaps save it.
