Welcome to My Experiment in Simplifying my Life

Hello and welcome to my experiment.

I decided that my life has gotten way too fast and way too complex. I realize that I am missing many of the most important things because I am moving way too fast to appreciate the simple things in life. So, I have decided that in 2011, I am going to do nothing that is overly complex, will return to eating simple, healthy foods, looking for the simple solutions to every day problems and learn to appreciate the very simple pleasures of being a wife and mother in 2011 and I'm going to blog about it....the simple way.

Wish me luck!

The Medical System is not simple.

By now, if you've read any of this blog, you know that I have been struggling with some bothersome yet not serious health issues. Just enough to take me out of my regular life while I heal but not enough to devastate my life completely.

Being that I am a bit of a simpleton by nature and I have committed to simplifying my life, I am attempting to apply that same principle to my healing and medical care. All I can say, is that it is clear that I am an idiot. Every health practitioner that I speak to can only address one set of symptoms and only within their area of expertise. My family doc will only look for one possible option and if other symptoms are present and don't fit within a box of a diagnosis, he blames stress.

Where I ask you is the doctor House's of this world, the ones who will look for the common thread and analyze from there? Too simple you say? Well my family doc thinks so too.

What have I learned? In medical applications, they go out of their way to make things long, hard and painful and one hand does NOT talk to the other. Why you ask? Well because that would be too simple!
