JOEY'S DESK 

We will be launching our new program called "Doctor Danger". Details will be in our February Newsletter and coming to our website soon.

I would like to thank everyone who as offered an autopsy report for our research project. This is such an important asset to making both the medical profession and governmental agencies aware of the lethal qualities of Methadone.

Hello,                                 

  First, I must apologize for a very delayed January newsletter. Earlier this month I was attempting a simple task on my laptop and lost all my data. After waiting for three weeks for repair and growing very inpatient, having limited use of another computer, my husband insisted I purchase a new one. I think it was for his own peace of mind. I am getting back on track, unfortunately a lot of information was lost. Just another hurdle but I will pull it all together soon. I can not thank everyone enough for their continued support and encouragement.

Blessings with a hug,  Nancy

We have been working for months on an Education and Awareness Program. We are finally awaiting acceptance and approval. This will have a huge impact to spread the word. 

In December 2007 we completed our Petition for Change. This did not go without several problems. Initially there were technical errors on the petition sites page. If you signed a petition for us the signatures were "NOT" recorded properly. PLEASE sign again so your voice can be heard. We believe we have touched on the areas that need to be addressed for  prescription drug issue's, especially Methadone.

Autopsy Research Project 

I can not stress enough how important this project is in the fight to make changes in the use of Methadone. We can talk, shout, and march but the key to get the medical profession and others to wake up is to provide medical evidence on how deadly this drug really is. This project will do that as we have already uncovered some information linking this drug to a greater risk of death then previously thought. We have found this to be true especially in combination with other drugs that we are now discovering.
