Hijack.
I will actually. I probably mistyped. My being bedridden is temporary. A few months. I should live a normal life thereafter. Fortunately, the human body either has two of something, or you’d be surprised what you don’t need. Doctors can tell you the same thing….My procedures is preventative, though I use to think preventative treatment was popping a few pills or getting more exercise. Actually, I’m pretty lucky. I caught this right in time. I think my primary care physician did some major misdiagnoses for some time, which is another story. Lesson learned, if your primary physician can’t find a clue, see a specialist right away.

Anyway, back on topic, jobs come and go, and so to professions, big deal. And employers are having a field day on this, even the ones that are still profitable. That said, I see promising things in the medical field. What you can do with genetic testing and technology is pretty amazing these days, as I’m learning. They just got to make this stuff more affordable for more people, which is sort of an geek challenge in itself. I wouldn’t count technology out just yet.
