We Got This!

"I tell him I tried. I tried to keep memory alive; I tried to fight those who would forget. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. There is so much injustice & suffering crying out for our attention. We must take sides. We must interfere. -E.W.

IBRF Agenda

June 14, 2011 by Ryan's Rally LLC 11 Comments

Here is the majority of the agenda for today’s call with IBRF. For the sake of simplicity, I did pare it down a bit for publishing on this blog. Also, I used less medical jargon. As you will see, it is quite detailed. If nothing else, I learned that you must personally manage your (or your loved one’s) health care. It’s just too much for a doctor (with some notable exceptions… that’s right, D-Hink & D-Rod, I’m talking about you!), especially given the inadequacies of the health care system.

With all of you becoming such an integral part of our lives, please let me know if there is anything else that you would ask.

    Ryan’s vitals look really good. Good to hear he’s working to respond and I am believing it’s genuine. We continue our prayers for God to heal him.

    Are any of those docs pharmacists? Given the intricate meds management you need to do, you might want a pharmacist on the team.

    Ken Looks like you covered all bases with such an involved agenda…And hope any questions,are answered to your satisfaction .We certainly do have to take over all health issues in such a day that Drs seem to be allowed 10-15 minutes with each patient :(,if that )Will be thinking and praying all goes well.

    Hi Ken! Well, as always it looks like you’ve got the whole gamut of issues covered. Out of frustration, I began doing some searches, knowing the odds are high that you will have already seen/read/know about these articles. But, on the off chance you’ve haven’t seen these, I’ll put them here:

    Praying for a positive dialogue with the IBRF and an aggressive plan to help Ryan on his road to recovery!!

    Love & prayers, Paula

    Unbelievable! This is an amazing agenda. I’m sure that you & Sue take good notes during these conference calls. Are you allowed to record the calls in case you missed anything? I would think that you could be so into listening, you could forget to take notes. That happens to me sometimes.
    I wish you all a great day. Try to stick your head outdoors for a couple of minutes. It’s simply gorgeous out there. We don’t get too many days like this in our area — not too hot or cool, low humidity — reminds me of San Diego!

    Big hugs to Ryan! Love you all — SHSP, NGA!

      Yes. Since we are rarely together for these calls, Sue & I independently take notes and record the calls. Because, you’re right, we are intent on listening. Following the call we each prepare our own minutes and later merge these. We send those minutes to all participants. It’s just like a business conference call, in many respects.
