A copy of a thing is not that thing. > There is a personal experience: In June my mother had a repiratory problem. At the hospital, they given her high dose (120mg) of a cortico-steroid: Solumedrol, the injectable form of medrol. That put her out of the problem, but let her for some time in a state best described as "shrewdness" or second-sight, at least it looked that. The hospital team was very concerned at the display of what they was looking as an important medical secrecy. When my mother came anew at the hospital for a 2 days check-up, she get out one month later in a near dying state, after strong barbituric (1000 time the recommended dose) and morphine "care". When I got here to home, an action was started against me to cancel my right and bring her to hospital. She died three weeks later before the legal action could take her. My questions are: What is the soul content of medrol? Is it worth a life? Yvan Bozzonetti.
