Ironically when I tried to raise my prices so I could pay my bills after my heart surgery in 2001 I was told to go to hell, by my clients who are all doctors at Tanner Medical Center in Carrollton GA…they also deemed me uninsurable in 2000 when I was diagnosed with arthritis and the heart condition I was required to get surgery to correct. 

 …and all of the work I had scheduled 6 months in advance to support my family was cancelled by my clients, all doctors working for Tanner Medical Center.

Let’s refresh our memories about who in the hierarchy the Republican Party during the run for the election just before Palin was picked to run with McCain had an impromtu conference scheduled in of all places, Carrollton Ga. …and Neil Horsley is someone you may want to google.

Newt Gingrinch was here, Ron Paul was here, The preacher that was running, can’t think of his name…but Ted Nugent was high up on his band wagon…and so was McCain, and Govenor Purdue. I believe Gingrinch is who assembled it. 

Why would they be in Carrollton GA of all places all at the same time? …I would have thought that Atlanta would be a better location for their little get together.

It just seemed very interesting to me…

then their choice for VP became a woman focused on taking the right to Privacy away. …and Fox News is based here…leaves a whole lot’s of questions for anyone who actually has a brain…don’cha think.

I’m dying because I was lied to about my actual condition for years.

By Doctors. If my death will bring light on this injustice and allow women’s privacy in my Nation so they will be protected than I have no choice but to accept my death.

 However, I am only 40 and have children who deserve their mother to be alive…since my condition is actually treatable, and we have the money to pay for my surgery…

Health care is a Women’s and Gay/Lesbian Issue because of the widespread abuse of HEPA Laws and Violations to OUR LEGAL RIGHT TO PRIVACY.

If you are a woman of truth Ms. Smith…and I believe you are, you will make my reality known.

This has nothing to do with compromising my children and I am NOT looking for a reality show…nor do I want or expect any level of payment for interviews. I just want this wrong righted.
