I've written and produced Off Broadway. I make sculpture that I sell from one of my web sites. Life as I knew it was destroyed when an angry surgeon injured me outside the field of surgery in a way that would make me wonder if it were worth living every day for the rest of my life. I dropped everything else to work full time on learning how he could get away with this. Now I am a patient safety expert. I always thought that the best I would be able to do in life was carry my bucket of water to the fire. Against my will I am in the position of explaining why we keep having fires. It is a thankless, ugly task that I would abandon if not for a sense of duty.
