Thank you to the staff of Kingman Regional Medical Center

Dear Editor, Nobody likes going to hospital, and sadly I have gone way too many times, but I am so very grateful for the incredible staff at KRMC. One nurse in particular is a superstar. His name is Pip and he works in the Emergency Department. He is kind and caring and really focuses on his patients. He’s also accurate in what he tells you. If he says he will be back in a couple of minutes, he actually is (not an hour later or doesn’t come back at all). If every nurse could train with Pip, our healthcare system…

The great spectacle of God’s creation: Part 2 of 3

Dear Editor, God has no limit as to what He does and what He can do! Adam and Eve disobeyed God after she told the Serpent that God told them not to eat or touch the fruit from the forbidden tree, “Lest ye die.” The serpent said, “Ye shall not surely die. God knows that when you eat the fruit it will open your eyes, and be like gods, knowing good and evil.” They listened to the Devil and were evicted from the Garden by God who then posted angels with flaming swords to keep Mankind out!  Since then, we their…

Furthering the discourse between opposing viewpoints

Dear Editor, Rick, at last an admission the rich should pay their fair share of taxes. That was sort of like pulling teeth. Anyway, I could not agree more: differences of opinion need to be aired civilly if they are to be credible. Civil discourse solves more problems than the muck being slung by politicians today. I looked into the 87,000 new I.R.S. agents to be hired. What I discovered was the proposal recommended that hiring would occur over ten years. The reason for reducing the monetary level to $600 is to concentrate on unreported income and ferret out the…

Please show compassion with your liberal politics about medicine

Dear Editor, I’ve taken as much politics as I can. Enough is enough with your Socialist rules and regulations, not to mention your stinking policies related to medicine! I am sick and tired of paying tax and not to mention copays just to be deprived of medication that relates to pain management so the rich crowd can sit back and have a good laugh at my expense. That also includes power chain and the life alert detail as well. I may have to pay tax on many details, but I should be allowed to receive a bit of compassion. Here…

How much is freedom worth?

Dear Editor, In America we pursue the occupation of our choice. That doesn’t mean we always like our jobs but we can choose to pursue another career or several different careers. We can choose our state, community, and house. That doesn’t mean we can easily afford to live where we choose but we are free to pursue life in another neighborhood if we want to work toward such a move.  We change our lives if we have the desire and the willpower. People make choices every day regarding health, habits, and lifestyles. Some choose to develop themselves further and strive…
