Great post.

For some perspective, especially with the kooky "doctors and big pharma" don't want to help you crowd....

Abraham Lincolns son died of a fever.

5-6 generations and we've gone from the presidents kid dying from mundane crap to being able to help people with profound illnesses.

Great thread.

The doctor dresses the wound. God takes care of the miracle aspect.

Another miracle. Gene therapy nearing FDA approval.

The problem is the staggering cost.

No! Doctors do more than "dress wounds". They deserve the credit for their miraculous work that only comes through hard work, study and dedication. If you don't believe this, don't go to a doctor the next time you're deathly sick, or to a dentist when an infection throbs agony through your tooth. Stay home and pray to God for one of his miracles. Thank him when your healing comes out of thin air, not via the hands of a skilled doctor.

Cheers to the little girl and the doctors who made this happen!!!

Expert Surgeons are incredible, they are like the cream of the crop in the medical-field.

You cannot successfully do crazily complicated, delicate, dangerous surgeries unless you are gifted, well trained and skilled.

... and part of a team of other well trained and skilled doctors, nurses, techs, and pharmacists.

That includes having the drugs needed to anesthetize and maintain the bodily functions of the patient.
