20. My friend in Australia waits and waits to see a doctor...

about 2 or 3 days. When her mother had a stroke, health care not only took care of all costs pertaining to her rehab...hospital bed delivered to home, bedside commode, walker, wheelchair, nurse visits 3 times a week, home visit from doctor as needed, her medications sorted by day, but also arranged for someone to come once a week to tidy up her bedroom and bathroom at the unheard cost of $1.00.

When it came time that she could no longer stay at home, she went to a nursing home at no cost to the family.
