Mrs. Perez,



Can you clearClear by design
Clear eyes
Clear eyes acr
Clear eyes clr a few things up for me.



You are a FREELANCE writer. Is that correct?



What "national" magazine will you be submitting your story to?



Will you be providing legal documents to protect the anonymity of your sources?



Have you yet, or will you be, using anything that has been posted here on this forum already?



I very much agree that a story needs to be done on this. The knowledge needs to be spread to protect more people from it's grips.

I personally have learned so much just from being here myself.



Sincerely,

Chezz

will always have room for just one more addict seeking something

more than what is left in the bottom of their pill bottle.



this forum is about recoveryRecovery position - series via one addict supporting another. it is not treatment or soul saving....although i must admit it certainly saved my ass.



i have a questions that maybe you could help me out with. what do you hope to achieve with another article about the evils of oxycontin? do you believe that you can examine this subject without the usual hysterical, sensational manner it has been given thus far?

I agree with Chezz.Don't BS us about the legality or the use my email address.I think the publication she would sell it to or

the way it would be used is my main concern.I think it a great idea for people that don't understand this to hear from us.

The ones caught up in the system of medicine and Gov't.And of course addictionDrug abuse and dependence.Lets hear from her!

I think most of us agree with you.I tried to say the same thing but being a southern white boy,I failed miserably.LOL

Lets hear what she has to say.I am all for it.'IF'

I have emailed and recieved a reply from Mrs. Perez. I have asked her permission to paste it here to the people that need to read it.

I will as soon as I get a response.

Chezz

Great post Skipper.

I agree completely with your wholehearted response.



I personally just feel more specifics need to be addressed.

Chezz

Furthermore, I have no doubt as to the credentials of Mrs. Perez or her work.

I'm concerned that this article will slam oxy for what a relatively small number of people have done to themselves with it and not address the great good it has done for hundreds of thousands of people.

I don't think taking a well performing product off the market is a good thing to do just because a relatively small number; comparatively to the overall population that take it, may overuse it. Most people follow the correct dosages.
