What is even worse is I'm sure there are hundreds of stories like this that we never hear about. It's absolutely disgusting. This *feces* should never happen in a "civilized" country.

Why do you all hate America??
Until somebody, make that everybody, comes to terms with the concept that 'Health Care For Profit' is a complete and utter oxymoron, we'll continue to struggle and lag behind the rest of the industrialized world in this area.

Totally agree that it is very tragic all the way around. While the buracracy of the medicare system might be a big part to blame it amazes me that a simple toothbrush and tootpaste and the brushing of teeth might have prevented the entire problem from getting started.
