Please ping me if your letter gets published. I am so sick of people inside our own country acting like they want America to sink if Democrats can't hold the power.

We have to speak up and make this our mantra.

If they don't print it maybe the St. Petersburg Times will. They wrote an article in February about the "mental fog" that persists in heart srugery patients.

Recovering from a body beating[excerpt on Free Republic] Recovering from a body beating [actual SPTimes article]

When Sen. Bob Graham underwent surgery Friday for a faltering heart valve, he and more than 200 other Americans that day had a procedure that has become routine in its frequency yet remains brutal in its assault on the body.

[snip]

Almost three-fourths of heart patients have some cognitive dysfunction -- called "brain fog" -- for as long as six months after surgery. In about 10 percent, the mental fuzziness is permanent, Singh says.

As redlipstick points out ,in another thread, Graham's surgery turned out to be even more extensive than folks were told at the time the SP Times article came out.
