Wolf, you are going way too deep.
The only person that would think to ask another person with CP for some help
with the meds
has to be a trusted friend, or a blooming idiot.
We, no I , have been talking about a friend helping out a friend.
Not some stranger that the met on the net a week or two ago.
My daughter has a problem with her back and can not go to the theater to see
a movie
because sitting too long hurts. She has not been dx'ed. but 8 years ago
a surgeon said that her spine was
curved. Not quite enough to require treatment at that time.
She called me up one night and asked if I had a muscle relaxer that she
could take to release the tension in the back.
I would have loved to give her a valium 5mg but I have not had any of those
for 30 years.
I told her I had Soma 350s, that she could have if she wanted. She came
over and asked me to cut the pill in half. I put the unused half in a
plastic bag for her to take home. 18 months later she still has the second
half of that pill.
Would you do that for your child?
