Their Godless thought being that asthma sufferers are a &#039;burden&#039; on society. So they think we must be rid of them.

Removing their medication shortens their life expectancy and their &#039;burden&#039; on their society.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Amy:

I think we will do ok with oxygen.  A couple of years back the FDA banned the cheap, generic propellant that is in asthma inhalers.  As a result you have to use this extremely costly one that tripled the cost.  It is so pricey that many asthmatics cant afford them, so they arent able to breath and therefore use less oxygen.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[P.S. It&#039;s kind of funny.....

....that pawpaw grows naturally in many places east of the Mississippi and in some states just to the west of it as well, e.g., Arkansas. 

All it takes is to gather the leaves and their stems, clean them, dry them, grind them to a fine powder and encapsulate them a gelatin capsule. 

Talk about &#039;gathering medicine in the wild&#039;.....]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Has anyone here had experience treating cancers with Graviola or Pawpaw?&quot;

Yes 
Pawpaw is awesome. When I took 1 bottle (1 month of treatment) for stage 4 dysplasia, it also cured the basal cell carcinoma on my lower eye lid. I also switched to a mostly vegetarian diet (for health reasons, rather than for ethical or religious reasons).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So a plant burned down, eh!?!?
This happened when the gas price started going up....supposedly a refinery burned down.....fertilizer prices started going up......supposedly a fertilizer plant burned down.
Seems too conveniant to me....these excuses.
Or did the government push the plant owners too far and......their plants burned down.
Easier to bury a smoldering mess then make them EPA compliant.
