Take Me Out On A Stretcher
This season the West Michigan Whitecaps, a minor league baseball team, will be offering up major league cholesterol, carbohydrates and 4800 calories in an enormous 4 pound hamburger... enough to feed an adult for 3 days.
Every year, it's a weekend of emotional ambiguity marking two medical anniversaries with totally different outcomes.
More recently, a life saving surgery. In the distance, a reminder that one of the few potentially life saving amateur tools in which the public is trained fails 9 of 10 times.
The painful truth is that your best may not be enough to save a loved one. But because they are a loved one, you try... And live with the memory through your Sadderdays.
Nice!!! Pass the stool softener...
