    Jory replied to wtbcrna's topic in Disaster Preparation

    That's if you think it should be a parental choice. I don't. Children should not be victims of faulty thinking that puts their life at risk. Can you do it with everything? Nope. Can you do it with...

    Why is it inappropriate to stand up for yourself?

    Jory replied to remotefuse's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations
