Seriously, no. From my point of view, signing on would be a commitment to keep reading that RP, and participating in it.

My wife just got out of the hospital on Friday evening, after having been there a week. We spent most of yesterday trying to get the at-home care that we had been told was all set up. That included getting her the intravenous antibiotics that she was prescribed. There were some kind of bureaucratic screwups: the hospital kept insisting to us that they'd sent all of the necessary documents to the nursing people, and the nursing people kept insisting to us that they hadn't received the documents. Result: my girlfriend missed her antibiotics for almost 24 hours, instead of getting them every 4 hours. And skipping doses of antibiotics is a really bad thing, because you end up with bacteria evolving to have resistance to the antibiotics. And so, unsurprisingly, my wife started getting sick again and had to go back to the hospital.
