Message:		My Aunt seems to thrive off of being in the ER. She talks about her trips often and how the nurses all know her by name. She has been scoped,probed,scanned numerous times to rule out MS.....which she doesn't have but swears she has all the signs. Now she's undergoing exploratory surgery on her knees due to pain that of which no Dr. can find a reason for. When the Dr. tells her they can't find anything all the sudden she's been healed and it's on to the next ailment.
