| I found this in an article
on the BENTON FOUNDATION's web site:
"The Internet has spawned a whole new breed of “natural
helpers”— people like Linda Bowser of Jackson, Mississippi, who used
her own painful experience with hip replacement surgery to create
“Totally Hip,” a Web site devoted to information, practical
advice—even jokes—for people in similar situations. Some self-trained
patient “experts” are so effective that John Renner, head of the
National Council for Reliable Health Information in Independence,
Missouri, has proposed creating a new “occupation”— the
“board-certified patient.” |
