It’s been said that waiting to die concentrates the mind, and my mind was concentrated, believe me, as I searched for the gun barrel and the enemy soldier that would end my life. He never came, thank God.

I spent the last 14 months of my 27 months of hospitalization in a Veterans Hospital. The care was first-rate, the caregivers had true compassion, and the Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) completely carried out its mission statement to “fulfill President Lincoln’s promise—‘To care for him who shall have borne the battle’… ”

TELL CONGRESS: VOTE AGAINST ANY
HEALTH CARE BILL THAT INCLUDES ABORTION COVERAGE
By Wanda Franz, Ph.D.

OBAMA “FABRICATES” ON ABORTION
