13. Yikes, sorry about your amputation, that's awful.

To clarify, I'm using "facility failure" in the general sense, not blaming the rural hospital--I can't believe that a larger facility in the region could not or would not make room for a man who was only 46 and needed emergency life-saving surgery. Obviously smaller hospitals must have agreements with larger city hospitals to accept their transfers, I would think. I used to work as a nurse in a smaller regional hospital and we would send people to Denver when we were not able to handle their needs. This is getting to be third-world country stuff now.
