Health Care

As the Congress of the United States prepares to vote on a bill that will hopefully reform the health insurance industry, the citizens of this country await yet another magic pill, this one may or may not deliver depending on your definition of reform. Lets hope it will help more Americans attain and maintain health insurance immediately and over the long term. One thing this bill is not, in my humble opinion is health care. My definition of health care; Taking care of and treating your physical and mental self to the best of your ability and getting professional help and direction and treatment when it makes sense. Health care should be your own first priority, so that your own health is at an optimum. You can best take care of others when you are in good health. Part of your own health care ought to be self administered in terms of proper diet and nutrition along with an effective exercise program. Disease, accidents and uncontrollable events are surely those beyond your personal power to cure and one must seek help. However there is much we can do...ourselves if only we focus and take positive action towards our own health care. I hope the bill passes, I hope it will help those who need it most. I hope it is a step in the right direction, for a healthier America.
