----------------------------------------------------- "We need to find someone who is willing to expose this entire situation for what it is..." In my opionion this person, or group of people should be doctors. It seems doctors are listened to and hold the respect of the public. ------------------------------------------------------------ First you have to convince doctors that this is the case. I think that will take longer than most of us want to wait. Docs need a lot of educating and that is one thing that many of us are working on. As with any multi-pronged complex problem, the solution lies in a multi-pronged complex approach. Each of us has strengths, contacts, ways of doing things. If each of us commits to doing one pro-active thing in this area per month, consistently, then progress will be made. This is a long term problem that will not be solved quickly. Big and little actions on many fronts will be necessary to make progress, in the news media, with doctors, with Moms, with society as a whole. If we all keep one another posted on what we are doing and how, we pass on good ideas, encourage one another and our individual actions become an integral part of this social movement.
