Help yourself - and someone else

If you haven't stopped by Lady Ru'etha's Realm of Bliss yet, now would be an excellent time to check it out. She's just updated her Free Stuff page with some mp3's, as well as Virtual Hypnotist preset packages for her hypnotic CD's. This is the perfect opportunity for you to experience her skill and inventiveness for free. And then, if you like what you see and hear, perhaps you'll want to check out one of her CD's (Reviews can be found on Jukebox's Hypnosis Blog, among other places).

Now, normally, I only recommend free stuff on my blog. It's a decision I made early on, and eventually it became so central to my philosophy that I took down my sidebar links for pay sites like Bianca Beauchamp's and Susan Wayland's. But this case is a little different. As Jukebox notes here, the hospital bills for Lady Ru'etha's loved one are mounting horribly. For those of you outside the US, that's just the way our system works. It sucks. In fact, it sucks so badly that there needs to be a stronger word for it than sucks. Something that implies a vast, festering, Mordor-esque wasteland.

So anyway, if you chose to buy a CD from Lady Ru'etha, not only would you be giving yourself a treat, but you'd be donating to a good cause, as well. I'm just sayin.'

The way that things currently are in the US health care system is so viciously and aggressively inhumane that one could be forgiven for believing that it was deliberately designed to ruin anyone who got sick as some sort of horrifically misguided punishment.

Additionally, the "pre-existing condition" trap, which will destroy your chances of getting new health care if you ever change jobs while managing a chronic condition, essentially enslaves you to a single employer.
