PATCH ADAMS

If you have been lucky enough to watch Patch Adams. You now see so much irony in the movie and the real life story of the Gesundheit! Institute.

Robin Williams portrayed Dr. Adams in the film about an older gentlemen who checked himself into a mental institute only to learn from the patients around him. He soon began to discover his meaning for life. Which was to make people healthy in many ways. Mainly through happiness and free healthcare to those who were turned away from the medical industry. He was even turned away from medical school for being excessively happy. Yet he never turned his back on people around him. He met his wife in college and tragically she died in the line of a mental heath patient. The most beautiful existence of this story is, Dr. Patch Adams continues to be in the services of others.

We all can agree Robin had a great handle of making people happy both on and off screen. How poetically sad is it, he took himself out of this universe?

I highly recommend watching this beautiful story. And visiting the Gesundheit! Institute.
