When I was injured on the job, a Dr. on my route called his friend at a world reknowned clinic, who happens to be the surgeon for the "arms" of the local major league team. Because of this contact I was able to get "world class care and rehab" from one of the best. I am forever grateful to that stop on my route. |

That’s disgusting, and another reason we need a smaller DIAD. A smaller DIAD would allow you to keep your eyes ahead of your work!

Although what the gal who works at the local UPS store gave me, when I saw her at the bar 2 weeks ago, was probably alot a bit more generous than that. |
