Starting a controlled burn in the middle of the windy season makes no sense..

Morning Word, April 8: “Cancer Care Docs Say Christus Hardball Leaves Patients in Limbo”
WWJD?
The management of Christus St. Vincent Hospital claims to be working for the ministry of Jesus Christ. They are now fighting with the independent doctors at the New Mexico Cancer Care Association who want to remain independent so they can serve more people in our community. It’s cheaper to get treatment at independent cancer centers than to be treated in a hospital. Christus plans to open a cancer center in two years. In the interval where do you think they will treat cancer patients who can no longer go to the independent cancer clinic? Follow the money.
What would Jesus do if he had the resources at Christus’ disposal? He would probably build a treatment center to provide care for people with addiction and mental health problems, since such help is woefully lacking here. He would also probably help unhoused people get shelter. It’s a good bet he wouldn’t try to decrease our options for care so he could make more money.

Live a Little
Brilliant and wickedly, wickedly funny. If you’re not howling with pleasure reading this issue of The Fork, you’re truly dead inside.
