My engineer husband worked with engineers trained in China, and India. He said the "engineers" are more like technicians, not at all trained to the same standard as the US. Once a company hires them, and some become managers they hire more Chinese engineers and kick out American ones. Happened twenty years ago, and is still happening. Our government has allowed this for many years.
As a Boomer who was a child when they took out JFK, I knew something was very off about a year or so after it happened.i thank my skeptical Dad for that. I've rarely believed anything the government has said since then. We are not all willing sheep, many of us could use discernment.
My experience is the same. There were no more than five fat kids in my elementary school. Overweight kids were so unusual back then. I remember the school nurse weighing us once a year, weight and height measurement. One of my friends was a bit chubby (not fat), and the nurse sent a note home to her parents, along with a diet for her to follow. I live in an area where people are well off and well educated. Very few fat kids or adults. One town over and it seems nearly everyone is overweight.
Is this the same Michelle "The Canoeist" Kosinski who once filmed a news video of a "flooded street" in NJ? The one where two guys are seen clearly walking just behind her because there was no actual flood? She's such a stupid tool.
During my nursing career I worked in long term care (nursing homes mostly), and the patient to nurse ratio was appalling. There were days when I was responsible for over forty patients, which is insane. The nursing homes use the excuse that the patients were "medically stable". It's BS because even if they don't have an acute condition, they are mostly elderly with chronic conditions. There is no freaking way the nurses can adequately care for such patients in such large numbers. These places are business first (as in each patient is a cash cow), and good care is a mere afterthought. Most of the facilities I worked in were bought by businesses. They usually did a cosmetic rehab of the facilities so they looked bright and shiny, but patient to staff ratio was still terrible.
I will keep you and your family in my prayers. I have gone through a similar trial with one of my adult children. She's never had a DUI, or anything of that nature, but her alcoholism has damaged her body badly. When I took her to the hospital two months ago, her blood alcohol level was three times above the legal level. She's petite and only weighs about 115 pounds. She did rehab and now lives in a sober living home. She's very recently sober and I pray every day that she continues. AA has been enormously helpful to her. Is there no help such as AA in the detention facility? That would be very valuable as I'm sure there are many people there with alcohol addiction. As you know, prayer is very powerful, and I wish for all of you God's healing grace.
Yeah, its quickly fatal. As a nurse I've taken care of patients with it. One that stands out years later was a young man of thirty six. He only lasted a few months and was on very heavy pain meds. Left a wife and three young children.
