Jean is so right, charity starts at home. Lets take care of our own and than what is left over help the others! These drugs cost so much because its the advertising that goes along with them!!!!! Lots of the money given for research goes for advertising these drugs. Its all a business where money does the talking. Sorry, don't want to sound negative but as I say if the truth hurts-too bad. That's my two cents worth for today. Wishing you all a very Happy Mother's Day. Sandy
