Chapter 2. Health and Medical Wishes: Providers, Facilities, and Programs

When we think about our health and medical situations, we think about the times when we’re healthy and the times when we’re ill. If we’re healthy, we’re concerned with finding providers that will satisfy our curiosity, keep us well, and make us look great. When we’re sick, we’re concerned with finding experts who will discover what’s wrong and then make us better. The different options and choices we can pursue are incredible freedoms. But with freedom comes responsibility, and that can be a daunting task in taking care of our health. Why? Because when we’re free to choose, we’re free to choose poorly or well.
