12/16/12 SYMPTOMS AND THEN, GRIEF/ANGER IN CT. I saw my neurologist this week, had another blood test for antibodies, and now am undergoing a third 3-day in-home IV of methylprednisone, with an MRI scheduled for next week and an appointment at Wills Eye Hospital for my double vision symptoms.
But then at the doctors office, she asked me about what was happening in the news. All I could think of was the fiscal cliff, even forgot about Sandy, the devastating hurricane that hit the NE coast. But two days later on December 14, a story out of Newtown, CT shot a hole in all of us. Another mass school shooting...an elementary school. Twenty 6-7 years olds gunned down and six staff. By a 20 year old asshole, who, fortunately killed himself, and sadly his mother.
Hideous nightmares like this always spark gun control debates, as it has done again, but never ever resolve them...or even address them in any significant way. Of course, a tearful Obama said it would this time, but we all know it will take the son or daughter of a rich pro-gun fanatic blasted to bloody hell before any of those idiots decide that guns are poison.
I know restrictions won't solve the problem, but it will make it harder for evil to attain the guns...or longer....or something. And what's wrong with that? Everything in life is difficult when it's worth doing. Besides, there's enough professional criminals out there to keep up our ever-growing record of senseless murder of innocents, without letting pissed off kids join the act. God help us all.
