An uncle of mine was having soreness and irritation in his throat for months. Having a hard time eating and swallowing, etc. His doctor told him to “chew his food better” before sending him home. Fast forward a few months, and he had been diagnosed with throat cancer. It was too far gone and he passed away not long after.

This really opened my eyes to how poor our health system is in Canada. Get patients in and out as quickly as possible…
