I was operated on, a plate was put in the wrist, and when the cast came off, I&#8217;ve spent the last month, or so, doing exercises to rehab.

Demonstrating yet more of my kinship with the &#8220;average Joe,&#8221; medical co-pays have built up, causing some financial difficulties that I will have to budget for with a payment plan, with several local medical services over the next year.  <em>Note:<\/em>  There are many Americans in this kind of healthcare boat, some a lot worse.
