What was it to cause her to fixate on going to Boston, I wonder?

Maybe she’d seen a television program about it.

When one of my children is sick, we go to the corner emergency clinic. If the people there said, “You need to go to a hospital emergency room,” I would go to the nearest one (15 minutes away) rather than 3-1/2 hours away to Duke, even though it’s reported to be the best in the region.

This seems to be a “no harm, no foul” situation, but it might have turned out badly. It doesn’t appear that her son had a rare condition that was difficult to diagnose or treat.

According to our local (Boston) news, she lived in Boston before Philly.

Well if it were Memphis, and you are on welfare, you use the 1 public hospital. Or Le Bonheur Children’s hospital.

No one in their right minds would use the public hospital, the welfare/illegals have turned the ER into a 24/7 doctors office. Might take 8 or more hours to be seen. It is now spilling over into the private hospitals.

It doesn’t matter if you live outside Shelby CO, if your child is sick they all take them to Le Bonheur Children’s hospital. For top notch treatment. No one is turned away.
