Pain is the Priority
Walter Robbins Sr.
8400 W. County Road 400-S
This concerns the emergency room at Ball Memorial Hospital.
Recently, I had an acute gall bladder attack and couldn't walk.
They told me I had to fill out all the paper work. I asked
whether I could get I could get help quick. They insisted I
fill out the paper work first. I even asked whether my wife,
who had brought me, could fill out the papers, but they said no,
I ad to d that.
It took more than 20 minutes to get that done. I was in a
lot of pain. I found out later that I had a stone lodged in my
pancreas and was full of infection.
I think that when a person goes to the ER with acute pain
they should be able to get some help immediately and worry about
the paper work later.
Or why can't a relative or friend who came with the person
fill out the paper work?

Keep Your Trash
Norma and Walter Robbins
We just came in from picking up the trash a person threw in
our front yard. We don't come to his home and get rid o our
trash. We take care of it in a way it is supposed to be taken
care of.
There was everything from the newspaper with his name and
address on it, to children's school papers, used toilet tissue
and tin cans. We don't appreciate such actions.
Wouldn't it be much easier to dispose of it properly, than
run all over the county to a well-kept home and scatter it all
over?
We care for our home and property even if others don't care
about theirs.
