Your note reminded me why I'm working in Colorado for a universal single<br>payer system. I'm doing this both by supporting those who work for such a<br>system and being on the campaign team of a person running for our state<br>legislature. Change doesn't work unless we all get involved and use our<br>anger about discrimination into action for equality. Our medical system is<br>so discriminatory in so many ways! Hugs to you and support - would you<br>doctor and / or staff work with you to obtain an examining table that works<br>for all patients? Our little mountain library got a grant for medical<br>supplies to teach good health to families; I bet you can find a grant for a<br>table!<br>

Thank you for replying to my post. I never thought of looking for a grant. I don't even know where to begin. I will google it and see what turns up though. Doctors that I know don't really seem to care so much. I need them for so many things I would be very intimidated to even ask them to try and get an examination table that I can use. They have so many patients and my appointment time is always very limited and I never seem to have the time I need with them to address all of my needs. A lot of the time i will ask something and as the doctor walks out of the room they tell me we will address that at my next visit. By then I forget or have already found some way to address my issue on my own. This is by far crapy medical care. I do appreciate your idea and I will absolutly look into it. Thank you very much.
