Welcome and Disclaimer

First, I would like to welcome and thank you so much for visiting our blog.  My purpose for this blog is to put some thoughts about health and healing out there, with hope that you will read, learn and be entertained.  The posts found here will relate to many different aspects of health including my thoughts on pain, healing, rehab, diet, surgery etc.  My true hope is that this information inspires you to question conventional beliefs and wisdom that we all can become healthier and better informed.  I truly believe that if health care providers did a better job educating the public, many of our countries health problems would be significantly improved.
