I had a friend in high school die of cancer.

He spent his last couple of weeks on morphine, watching the Simpsons from start to finish.

That aunt needs to rot in hell.

[Alexander's Horse]

sadly addicts are like that, probably thought oh well the kid is going to die anyway

Her cousin’s mother apparently stole her liquid pain medication (Percocet) and replaced the liquid in the bottle with god-knows-what.

Probably Zima.

I have an eight-year-old patient who is currently under treatment for an extremely rare form of bone cancer.

Her cousin’s mother apparently stole her liquid pain medication (Percocet) and replaced the liquid in the bottle with god-knows-what.

So, yeah. **** everyone.

Comrade, you have my most profound sympathy. I've been fighting the good fight for probably at least 2 deacdes more thgan you, though as a general internist few of my severly ill pain patients are little children. OTOH I don't know hoiw often I've told some cracker wgoi beleives that child abuse is a God given right: "if you do that to your child in front of me again so help me God I will I turn you in to social services, but I will bring the mother ****ing popcorn to the sentencing." God knows how many times I've had someone counterfit my name on a scheduled drug perscription. One of the great things about going digital is when you tell one of these a**holes that his script will be faxed and that he'll never see my signature so that his sleazy little hands can copy it. Just this week I had a guy in my office trying to convince me that he was an Iraq vet in need of pain medicine for his war wounds. It took only 4 questions to determine that he'd never been to Iraq.

In my experience this country has a prescription narcotics problem that rivals Russia's love affairith fermented potatoes.

Corrected.

Jesus Christ. What a selfish ****.

Corrected.

Thank you. Only losers like Poles drink potato vodka.

[Guynemer]

On the other hand, Russia does have krokodil.

Note to Polytubbies: do NOT GIS krokodil.

[Dr Strangelove]

Corrected.

Actually the United States consumes 80% of the world's narcotics, so no, Russia's nonprescription narcotics consumption couldn't come anywhere near America's prescription narcotic use. Russia has however managed to develop the world's most dangerous narcotic.

It's not the substance that is dangerous, it's the impurities. Or are you talking about China White?

[Dr Strangelove]

No, I was thinking about the flesh eating krokodil. You could say "bathtub gin isn't dangerous, it's the impurities", but the way bathtub gin is made it's still dangerous. The same with krokodil.

[regexcellent]

Isn't that made from like, cold medicine, matchstick heads, and gasoline? I've seen pictures of the results of its use, flesh falling off the bone and necrosis and whatnot. It amazes me that people actually use that ****.

[DaShi]

It's either that or live in Russia sober. What would you do?

[Krill]

Suicide by freezing to death.
