"Sometimes the so-called experts are wrong, or lazy, or arrogant.
Sometimes you have to use your common sense and scream what's right
from the rooftop. This compelling book reveals one case history...and
a strong young woman who did scream."
Tom Basinski, Author, "No
Good Deed

excerpt...
I lift my digital camera up to my face to click a picture of
Curtis. I plan to do this every day for him, so he'll have a
visual diary. Shirley sees the camera and tells me, "No! You
can't photograph him!" I ask Curtis if he minds if I take his
picture. He says no, he doesn't mind. Shirley says I can't take
photographs; the only photographs the doctor will testify to are
the ones the doctor takes. Who said anything about testifying? I
think this lady is whacked. This is my first exchange like this,
but as it turns out, it's certainly not my last. This hospital
is full of people who are trained to respond from a position of
liability. They don't know how to be human. They all went to the
same seminar. After she leaves, I take three pictures of Curtis
just because she irked me. I can take my husband's picture. Last
time I checked, one of the items on my country's resume was
"Land of the Free."
