Show to make your life seem great!

I watched the HBO show Chernobyl Heart today. I don't think that I will ever be the same. It is about the children being born in the areas surrounding Chernobyl (remember, the Nuclear plant the exploded). I won't go into details, but one Dr. said that 15 to 20% of the babies born near Minsk are born healthy ! And, there are huge amounts of children with the same type of heart defect (holes in all 4 chambers) that can't be operated on in Russia, because of money that are dying. in the US, the patch to fix the heart is $300!
I am not a very religious person, but I hugged my kids estra tight tonight and thanked God for their health.

Not only are we blessed with health, but in a country with freedom to drive a good economy to make healthcare affordable and to allow for more medical innovations.

Re: Show to make your life seem great!

I didn't see this particular show, but I have had students do projects on this topic and the pictures that I have seen are indescribable!!!!! It is truly heart wrenching.
