I read about this a few days back.. I am somewhat appalled by our civilization sometimes, especially in circumstances like this.
Wesley Warren suffers from a terrible affliction. And yes, some will choose to make funny quips and comments.. but this story actually has a profound ability to teach us a lesson: Health insurance is a necessity in the modern world, as civilization is better when it’s less about profit and more about care and compassion.
People are not being compassionate about Warren’s immense scrotum.. it’s a headline sure to garner laughs and smiles.. But it’s a personal hell for him to deal with.
Be kind, humanity. You, too, may one day have an embarrassing problem. I hope and pray that yours will not be due to the fact that a for profit health system gave you less than adequate care or even completely cut you out of the system..
