[Nfbc-info] Procedure

[Rob Kaiser]

I was told te other day that it would either have to be a friend driving me 
home or a medical transport vhicle. My inferance is that a cab could be a 
problem as well. also, cabs are very dificult to get in Victorville. Most of 
the time, when you call the taxi company, you have to leave a message on 
their voicemail & then they call you back.

I think it all depends on the facility. One day my dad drove himself home 
after a procedure  and they were perfectly fine with that. What doesn't make 
sense here is that you're willing to pay for your neighbor to put her kids 
in a daycare, but you're not willing to pay for a taxi? I think that a taxi 
would be cheaper, or is the medical center against that too?
