For those that can’t get to/afford a doctor…

It’s called ‘Where there is no doctor a village healthcare handbook’ http://www.webpal.org/SAFE/aaarecovery/7_medicine/Medicine%20-%20No%20docto r/Medicine%20No%20Doctor.pdf Given the shoddy/expensive healthcare coverage in some countries (lookin’ at you, USA), this could be a life-saver. Download and save it for an emergency, cuz you never know..

Keep in mind an ER is always obligated to treat you if it’s life-threatening.

.. and then (if in the USA) you get a big ol’ bill in the mail and a collection agency hounding ya. Often though, it’s the non-life threatening stuff that will get ya.. though most anything can escalate to that status given the right (wrong?) situation.

That’s the downside. But if my kids sick the collection agencies can kiss my booty! It’s harder for them to collect after you move anyway.
