Hey guys, the county hospital in my county in Texas was voted best hospital in the nation!!

[agapepilgrim]

Are you serious?

[TexasLawman]

Yes. I’m sure it was best county hospital, but still!!

[CrazyCatWom]

Impressive! My county hospital is the only Level 1 Trama Center in NM, but also covers parts of Mexico, AZ, UT, CO, OK, and . . . oh! West TX! (It has also been MY home away from home, and where my neurologist runs around like a mother duck, followed by four or five ducklings, as it is also the only teaching hospital in NM).

Awesome. Which county are you in?

[TexasLawman in reply to hairbrain4]

Tarrant county. Fort Worth, TX

So was the hospital JPS? We used to live in Arlington back in the 90's. My husband got to bring in the new year 1995 at that hospital.

[TexasLawman in reply to hairbrain4]

Yes!

[hairbrain4 in reply to TexasLawman]

It was a good hospital back then too. That is if you could make it from the parking structure to the hospital without getting shot. It was pretty rough back then. They actually saved my husband's life though. The doctor gave him about 3 months before he would have kidney failure & probably die soon after. But they had an experimental surgery they were doing on the renal artery. He put a stint in. It's now a routine surgery. They did the same surgery on 3 other people that week and 2 of them died. But my husband is still kicking!

Yes, FWPD has cleared up a lot of areas that used to be dangerous but aren’t anymore.
