Pam W. as always right on the money, we need a QUALITY CONTROL, BAD we need to get our act together FAST or we WILL GO THE WAY OF THE DINOSAURS.

I'm NOT going to BITE MY LIP when a mom and baby are put at SERIOUS RISK due to haphazard care with (my honored hard earned yes multi thousand hours qualified) title on her shingle.........and to think they lie about their contact clinical experience is despicable to me I'm still ANGRY from.....well you know......better go before the computer burns up. night, bless.......all
