As
I said on my other post, I was so mad at the Nightly News with Lester
Holt last night I could have screamed! They only tell a "piece" of the
story, NOT the stories of us who would not be able to have a "life" or
any quality of life if we were not able to have physicians help us take
our pain down to where we can "stand it"... For ONE NO medication "takes
all of the pain away".... but it does give us a place where we can
"live" with it. It makes it bearable, most days. And for
them to sit there and speak like this is something that is just a
"surgery" issue etc...without even mentioning how many of us would not
be able to take care of our families, work, do anything at our homes,
nothing... we would only be able to sit, lay, or try and "live" with
severe pain, that is what I call intractable and unbearable! without my
great physicians and my medications, and that is not just pain
medications, but my RA meds, my heart medications, Lupus medications,
and so forth, I would have no life, I would never be able to take care
of me, and certainly not be able to somewhat help my Mom... and try and
do advocacy work, and write... my life would NOT be life but living
hell! I am seriously thinking about writing the Nightly News and telling
them how I felt about their "one sided" view of this situation.... and I
have to wonder "whom is lining" whose pockets, when it comes to the
CDC, Congress and all of these people that have NO CLUE what it is like
to have a disease that brings on such an amount of horrid pain daily...
they would think differently if it were them or one of their loved
ones...
This is what I am speaking of on the Nightly News from Last night March 15th
I sent my email to the Nightly News about this story last night. I hope you also take a moment to respond!
