Dennis Quaid's Misdiagnosis
First off, I'd like to know if IVs are "commonplace" interventions for healthy newborns in the hospital. Certainly they were not when my two children were born in 2003 and 2006. They were born at a major teaching hospital in NYC.
Now, about those other needle sticks. Vaccinations? Sure. Bring em on. Better than the alternative any day. Blood tests to discover potentially fatal genetic conditions? Sure.
I'm not apologizing for the hospital's mistake, but it's only prudent for a baby to get certain medical tests and care in the first few days of life, and if that requires a few needle sticks, so be it.

Funny thing. My wife's Jewish ancestors were living in Palestine in the early to mid 1800s. So shall we call them "Palestinians" also? They were ACTUALLY LIVING THERE. LEGALLY.
But in your world view, they had no right to self determination. No right to control their own destiny.
I'm glad that the UN thought otherwise and voted to establish the State of Israel. posted 05/08/2008 at 22:57:32
