    Nearly 30 years ago, I was severely criticized for deciding to go to college by many in my congregation and my "priviliges" were restricted as a result.

    Today, I am happy to say that the world has not ended and my son moved in to his college dorm. In the last 30 years, without the "new system" we have all relied on trained medical staff for our healthcare needs. It's a pity my oldest brother never became the doctor he'd dreamed of. My son is following his dream, I wish him every success, especially as I am paying!

    3rd.

    PS I used the term "happy" in a loose way as I had a whole mix of emotions today.

    I went to college 25 years ago, and here I am, still waiting on the new system.
