Amoung Throckmorton's many accomplishments in medicine, the sign that bears his name carries the greatest legacy. Just as his radiographic sign has helped many a trauma surgeon and ER physician rapidly identify a serious medical problem, it is hoped that his other signs will alert the voting public of other things that are seriously wrong with our medical and legal systems.

Camión Basculante
Our county hospitals are going bankrupt. One of the main reasons is the number of illegals flooding their EDs. To stay afloat they have had to resort to new techniques. The technique is EMTALA. It is so hard to prove an COBRA violation that the small hospitals will immediately create some reason that they can not provide the care for the patient. All illegals who are pregnant get transfered becuase of lack of prenatal care and probable high risk. Of course all traumas, and everything else they can make up gets sent on the camion busculate to the university. Somebody has to pay the bills, so pass the buck!
