Yet....it is a well established medical fact that consistent stress as in "the fight or flight response" can cause health problems....The activation of the sympathetic nervous system leads to the release of norepinephrine from nerve endings acting on the heart, blood vessels, respiratory centers, and other sites....but then...I guess your response "bullhockey" is a much more learned diagnosis.
For some reason you posted this on the "Battle for your home" thread...so I will repeat myself.
Frankly, my statement was not a gratuitous slap at a sick man....it is a statement in fact.... I would detest being in his position...having to defend lies and damn lies.. But...that is his choice... Seriously...I hope the best for him medically and the worse for him politically... I can separate the 2...can you?
