Susan Cody - On-line Pharmacy Investigation : Any Drug you want with the Click of a Mouse (and a Credit Card)

I was reading a story recently about a woman whose husband died from over-dosing on medications he had purchased (somewhat surreptitiously) from an on-line pharmacy.

I think we all suffer through the plague of mass emails for everything from pills to cure erectile dysfunction to pills that take away your pain. I get so many E.D. emails that I almost felt like checking my parts to make sure I am actually female...do these companies know something about me I don't?

No, all they care about is an email address and the easy lure of money.

It all started with the Personal Healthcare Journal for Seniors.

My mother-in-law sees five different healthcare providers and was having trouble remembering who said what. After much research I created a tool to help her record and track her medical information. Check it out at www.mycarenecessities.com

The book has been out for just six weeks and the response has been amazing - not so much from the seniors but from the baby-boomer generation.
