“108 Days is a reminder that every patient needs a friend or family member acting as his "patient advocate", someone who is watching out for him. These days, nurses are multi-tasking and hospitals are hectic. Doctors aren't always communicating with each other.  A patient advocate keeping an eye on that one patient can make all of the difference"
