PUT MONEY INTO REHAB
I think all the angry mothers like myself should form an organization
like Mothers Against Drunk Drivers. Perhaps a good name would be
FADDD, or Families Against Drug Dealing Doctors.
It sickens me that these doctors just get a slap on the wrist and are
allowed to continue prescribing these drugs in their pill mill
offices. Meanwhile, the addicts are the ones who pay the highest
price, with their lives many times or the accumulation of points in
jail for the crimes they commit to get the drugs.
I'm not making excuses for those addicted, but these are not drugs
that were easily obtained before these doctors and their other
nonmedical clinic backers decided to get rich fast and disregard the
reason to practice medicine in the first place: to save lives.
If I had my way, the offending doctors would all be in jail and the
cash taken from their offices would fund a much-needed rehab for those
addicts who can't afford the help they need.
