Michelle Quist: Utah ‘creative disruption’ will make medicines more available
(Tribune File Photo) Utah State Sen. Dan Liljenquist holds a town hall meeting in Draper, Utah, Tuesday,September 13, 2011.A few years ago I brought my son into the emergency room because he was having difficulty breathing. He was trying to fight a virus handicapped by his small airway and weak muscles.
I hadn’t realized how serious it was. As soon as we walked in the nurse took one look at him and rushed him back to a room. She called a code and within minutes my sweet, little boy was surrounded by nurses and doctors frantically calling out instructions for medicines and other emergent care.
