An idea that is overdue

This is going on in Houston, but should be spreading across pediatric cancer treatment sites throughout the country soon. The program makes it easier for information about one's childhood cancer treatments to be accessed by his or her future physicians.

Personally, I find it incredibly intimidating to even think about looking for a primary care physician because of my history. I have a little card that explains my treatments, but it doesn't really explain the possible long-term effects of those treatments. Add in the fact that I am chronically lazy when it comes to scheduling doctors' appointments, and you get someone who should be seeing a doctor very regularly, but sees one only invariably. I wonder if something like this might make it easier for those patients like me.
