Happy Thoughts

June 2, 2009

Food for thought…

The cure for rheumatoid arthritis might already exist.

As you read this, someone could be putting in his/her mouth the little pill that could end the suffering for RA patients forever.

Except that little pill they just took wasn’t some experimental drug. No…they took that pill for the flu or an STD or for seizures.

Just look at the two drugs I take to control my RA.

          Plaquenil was originally used to treat malaria.

          Methotrexate  is a chemo drug.

It makes me happy to think a cure could be closer than we realize. :)

The Invisible,

S.

    what a great way to turn our perspectives around…I hadn’t thought about it that way!

    Just found you and I really like your attitude. And your quirky sense of humor. You made me smile and brightened my day a bit. Thank you!
