ShAARP Session: Observations from AARP

YOU HAVE GIVEN ME SO MUCH HOPE AND FAITH IN OUR GOVERMENT.
AT 73 YEARS OLD I CAN SEE A FUTURE.
GOD BLESS

i was going to write the aarp representatives to ask them to become aware of another facet of health care issues for the sick,, elderly and disabled then i saw that the president reads ten letters and figured i would give it a try as i have already written new jersey congressmn and senator on this

as a nurse i have seen much in hospitals, nursing homes etc that scare me--the indifference of big business to human life

what i wish to address is the pharmacy and drug makers--to be included in responsibility and accountability. i have seen mistakes in this area too-- as a citizen you can write them and basically you get blown off as a nusiance-hen out of frustration you can sue them trying to get them to listen but again they look at you as a nusiance--they are indifferent to their mistakes and how they can cause people serious harm--the sick and the elderly--i have witness in my own family where an elderly family member walked out with the wrong heart med--which i happened to catch otherwise he would have died and the cause blamed on his multiple health issues

corporate does not wish to acknowledge these mistakes --my husband was gicven a generic simply because they said they could do it-- a friend picked up the med for me--so i did not notice till he had a severe reaction and i almost lost him--it would have taken a minute for the pharmist to call and check with me on the script---yes it was a freakish situation but an example how business regards us

if my husband died because of the reaction on his weakened condition it would have been attributed to his other conditions not what facilitaded it

i am grateful every day he is alive but tireed of this pharmacy indifference and considering me an annoyance suit--i am slowly transfering things over to another--there are more reasons why i did not do this sooner-as i naievely believe they should make a change in policy
anyway they consider this case a nusiance case-even though if you google this pharmacy you see there are many suits against them for mistakes

well this may not do us anygood but maybe writing those in goverment or aarp--may make them change and maybe save another family from heartache or loss--just another aspect of health reform needed to be looked at

human life is precious

thank you for listening--i greatly appreciate this right to expres a truth
