The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States for the seventh time won the war that wasn’t a war, so the United States can open the Strait of Hormuz that was open before the not war.

The not-war that started to get the uranium that was completely obliterated, so that the Iranians can’t build the nuclear bomb that they weren’t building for the not-war that the United States started.

Then the United States, which has nuclear weapons, threatening to use nuclear weapons to prevent Iran from having nuclear weapons because having nuclear weapons is dangerous.

If the United States saw what the United States is doing in the United States, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

I will preface this by saying I have had the best experiences with the VA since I started using them in 2013. Now I use them full time, without any other insurance and I couldn’t be happier!

Now since I had my accident and had to go to the civilian sector for emergency care, the two systems have not translated well together.

I once again had a scan, another CT to assess healing, and, once again, the radiologist addressed a variety of things, but did not mention one thing about the reason for the exam. I had a CT a couple months ago that still showed a non union fracture of my C1 anterior arch and had another this past Friday to assess healing. The radiologist report mentioned every other damn vertebrae EXCEPT the one specifically mentioned on the order! What the f**k! And this is about the 4-5th time since I transferred my care back to the VA.

Well, I went on the VA Healthevet portal, downloaded the images, found a viewer to view the type of file it was in, and made my own report.

I feel like the gap in the break has INCREASED, instead of decreased, over the last couple
Of months. Hopefully my neurosurgeon will compare the two, do some measurements and make that determination.

Neck was 75-80% better prior to my Philly trip, but now I’d say I’m maybe in the 65-70% range. I’ll see what they say on Monday, hopefully!

Here are the two scans. One at the Dr’s office and one from my computer.
