Patient4200, you make some very valid points and I agree with you on alot of levels, but I think what John, Cool, myself, and several others are trying to get across is this......Dr. Vigil was appointed this position. He is the final word and with that power comes responsibility. He has a RESPONSIBILITY to show up to these meetings and see first hand what is going on.....There is now way this is excusable. We understand that it takes change on a different level to really make an impact......but when we have a government full of people who cant make a simple meeting, we have to take matters into our own hands. Are you aware that Dr. Vigil isnt planning on attending the next meeting on March 30th either?.....I think thats pretty shitty for an appointed official to blow off the people he is supposed to be trying to help....It's funny how a bunch of crippled, dying, and other wise disabled people can make it all to one place......but 1 single doctor cant.
