As a San Diegan and a pain management specialist, I am appalled that our Board of Supervisors is defying the will of county voters, and doing it in order to wage a war on the sick.

[AMR] felt it was important to provide the senior management and their families with the same level of pension security as that of its other employees,

The only management we've had to do with her so far has been managed very well by her pain medication. As she's gotten older, I haven't seen activity decline because they've stayed up on her enough.

A fraction of dying patients, even with excellent pain and symptom management, face a dying process that is so prolonged and marked by such extreme deterioration and suffering that for them having the choice for a peaceful and humane death on their own time, on their own terms, is the least worst alternative.

I've been playing consistently in the scrimmage and against San Diego and against the Bills, ... What more can I do?

These supervisors have been running unopposed for years. They feel they can really do anything because they just get voted in year after year.
