To begin, would you mind sharing a bit about yourself and the topic you’d like to discuss?
Hello, my name is Johanna. I am a disabled woman who had a long and
storied career. For many years I managed methadone clinics treating
patients addicted to opiates. Because my life is so involved in health care
and medicine, sometimes others feel as if it is a “need to know” subject. Are you sick, do you know someone who is sick? Most people feel that if they are not sick, then they don’t need to know. I wish for everyone to pick up this subject as important because it touches 100% of everyone eventually. Every single person must pass through the doorway of a healthcare provider somewhere at some point.
First, please don’t pass me by because I am 65 or because I am disabled. I am a blogger. I promise that my work is interesting and important in
today’s world. Of course, not every story matters every day, and if you
went to my blog and searched for a word important to you like “love” or
“kids”, you’ll find information and a point of view that might be
illuminating.
