Thoughts and Prayers

Here we go again with the “pray it away” crowd. Don’t get me wrong, prayer can be powerful, but when it comes to serious medical conditions like diabetes, you need more than just a few Hail Marys. It’s heartbreaking that this girl’s life was cut short because her parents refused to get her proper medical treatment.

I know we all have different beliefs and faiths, but when it comes to our health and the health of our loved ones, we need to put our trust in science and medicine. I’m sure those parents had good intentions, but as the saying goes, “the road to hell is paved with good intentions.”
