Our health care system is heading toward disaster. We need action now before this tsunami drowns us all

Do you know what it feels like to drown? As water enters your nose, it burns your lungs as the air is choked from your body. You're overcome with feelings of panic and helplessness as you struggle to survive. I nearly drowned a few years ago while swimming in the ocean. I remember the sheer terror as I was pushed under the waves while I fought to breathe.
