Not a fan of Axelrod at all....but my son has epilepsy too and thought it was a nice piece.
Still don’t agree with his politics.
You either forgot the sarc tags or else .. You don’t care that this same person is the force behind taking Your Family’s care away from You.
I had no empathy for Saddam Hussein and his family either. Sorry! Just mark me down as “uncaring and unmoved.”
Here is what I took away from the segments I saw.
Ax comments that their daughter’s illness ruined their vacations.
That they felt that since they might die in 20 years or so they should put her in a ‘facility’ NOW.
My opinion, FWIW, is that he did not want to bring their damaged daughter to D.C. Keep her out of sight at the ‘facility’.
This man has pushed for Obamacare which would deny families all the doctoring they got for their daughter.
The first time I read about this daughter the Axelrod’s stated that the seizure was the result of an inoculation. I suspect, with no evidence, that they sued the manufacturer and that pays for the subsequent and current care for their daughter.
Clearly, rationing of health care for us but not for him.
Call me COLD.
Top White House adviser David Axelrod says that if Congress passes the Democrats' national health care bill, it will be politically impossible for Republicans to undo the changes brought by the massive legislation. "I say, Let's have that fight. Make my day," Axelrod said on "Meet the Press."
I recently read an article on the Atkins (Ketosis) Diet for children prone to seizures. A very close friend said her nephew (child) was suffering from seizures due to brain tumors. He was having eight seizures a day and after two weeks on the Ketosis Diet, he has three a week. It is a miracle for this family.
I saw it the other day. It was less about the father than the daughter and she hasn’t done anything to anyone.
