    So the wife and baby are sick. They went to the ER Sunday. She has bronchitis and he has a infection. Today the er calls and says the baby xray shows a shadow they need him to be seen today. How the #### do you not pickup on it when he's there.

    I'm sorry Pete! That's scary with a baby so young. Let's hope and pray they caught it early and he'll be all better soon! And your wife too :)

    Because the radiologist, who is the expert in reading xrays, wouldn't have seen the xray until today. Sorry that your wife and kiddo aren't feeling well. I hope they get better very quickly.

    From our personal experience: my oldest actually had a stress fracture in her ankle that had been diagnosed as a sprain. Part of the missed diagnosis (she DID sprain the ankle) was the angle the original pictures were taken from. They didn't take a side view at the ER, which would have shown the fracture distinctly. I know it sucks, but medical professionals are human, too. And make mistakes.

    Are you willing to pay for them to be staffed with every specialist around the clock 7 days a week? I'm not.

    I got the price list today of all equipment and Racks from Mercer.

    The diamond plated 3 door headache rack is $1775 at Mercer. Same price it is online. So I will wait and get when I get down there. Makes things easier for me :cool:
