Very frustrated in Canada:

[Guest guest]

We, the sick women, have become a growth industry for the manufacturers who

made us sick in the first place with their deadly implants, and now for

everyone else who is getting rich on us. We have become CA$H COW$ for

doctors, pharmaceuticals, psychologists, psychiatrists,chiropractors, health

food stores and people who claim that they can detect silicone in our blood

to name just a few. We are all destroying our state (US) and provincial

(Canadian) health care programs and many people are beating me up because

they have to pay for my health problems.

I guess that this will be my last vent for today.

Love you all....Lea
