President Obama faces obstacles in easing your pain
Michael Daly
Tuesday, August 18th 2009As I strolled down York Ave. past Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, I thought of our President's mother.
Here at this world-renowned hospital, Stanley Ann Dunham experienced America at its best.
Highly skilled doctors.
The most dedicated and compassionate of nurses.
The latest research.
The newest technology.
Everything a person in need of healing could hope for in the richest country on Earth.
Then, Dunham experienced America at its worst.
