That Linkages site appears to be limited to only California and Oregon. If you're outside that area, I found another site that looks similar with a broader network of opportunities to help Senior Citizens: http://www.elderh

Anesthesiologists are definitely a different breed. That approach (a few sleeping pills and a shot) definitely jives with my encounters with a few of them. Epic.
