Those around me often have a hard time as well. But I feel really strongly that we must make ourselves aware of suffering, but I am not sure exactly why. It hurts to be aware. It creates dissention in personal and professional relationships. I can't help but think that awareness of suffering has something to do with healing.
Healing can come from unexpected places.
I think so. This is great news for one pharmaceutical company, Wyeth-Ayerst, who makes over one billion dollars worldwide and expects that income to double by the year 2000. Today, nine million women take it. There are many alternatives to traditional HRT to help with the often painful symptoms that accompany menopause. But many physicians will never mention these alternatives due to the pressure by the drug manufacturer to prescribe Premarin.
