  2. Best Brand of Shoes

    As someone who has fallen off my Danskos twice, I switched to Merrell's "Primo Breeze" they are slip ons that you can run in, are comfy from day one and even I can't fall off of!!
  3. "Natural Cures"

    No, he really is just in it for the buck!! I watched his infomercial, thought he was really on to something, bought the book. He covers many things, things that most of us have already learned by middle age, and he gives you a tease, and then directs...

  12. When pt is refusing a C/S

  13. When pt is refusing a C/S

    thanks for that info-i was not referring to a termination for a legitimate reason although i do not believe that Downs is justification to terminate. But this thread is not about abortion, it is about refusing a c/s.
  14. When pt is refusing a C/S
