This blog is focused on stock market investing but I occasionally digress and this is one of those occasions. I don’t discuss my day job on this site but I am making this exception. Last year we decided to make a donation to our local hospital but we asked for a list of priority needs. After reviewing the hospital’s list, we decided to cover the cost of sleep diagnostic equipment and software which totalled $12,000. Until now, patients suffering from a sleep disorder had to travel five hours to St. John’s for diagnosis. Last year, a hospital which is an hour away acquired sleep diagnostic equipment and now has a six month waiting list.
Our hospital has trained six personnel and started using the equipment today. Below is a picture courtesy of our local newspaper, The Advertiser, and, as always, I am the shortest person in the picture!
