I would like to share with you a letter I have submitted for the Congressional hearings..

Dear Ms. Waismann and all the doctors at the Institute,

I would like to share with you a letter I have submitted for the Congressional hearings Feb. 9.  I know you doctors are working hard with many of the victims of this disaster and I would like to thank you for your dedication and service to these struggling patients.  I only wish I had known that this was available to me November 3, 2001. 

I was a legal patient user of Oxycontin for back pain.  When my doctor realized I was addicted, he abandonded me and refused to help other physicians, who were willing to help me detox.  When I tried to get help for detoxification, the only facility I could find at that time was a detox center for alcoholics.  I was thier first patient on this drug, of which, they had no regimen knowledge, nor experience.  When trying to get the information, of course every source, was woefully inadaquate.  I was told upon admition that I would in no uncertain terms NOT be given any narcotics.  I didn't know any better, wanted to get off this poison, and proceeded to stay there for 5 days, with not much more than blood pressure checks.  I want to take an opportunity to commend you for your work with these unfortunate people who have met up with the pill called Oxycontin, no matter how it was introduced to them, nor how they acquired the drug.  I'm sure you can see how this drug is in a class of it's own, no matter how it has been officially labeled.  My heart and prayers go out to all of you.

Sincerely,

Betts

  • "Though it has been some time since I visited, I wanted you to know that I thank God each day for the miracle of re-birth you have given my sister. You mentioned that day that you weren't feeling/looking well and were somewhat reluctant to be in pictures. I don't know what to say other than when I look at my copies each day, I see two shining angels! You and Deborah could not be more beautiful and I am so grateful you granted me permission. I wish you all the best in your continuing efforts to save lives. Happy Holidays! Let Hope Shine In Though the sun sets each day taking with it the light The sun goes not for it shines constant Wherever there is darkness - light awaits View not the sunset as passing of the light But rather a beautiful confirmation of it Though there are times when hope seems absent You must believe it is there - waiting to be found Angels are among us If you are receptive they will guide you Ours led us to the Waismann Institute Where earthbound angels saved my sister's life Since that amazing experience 15 months ago The sun has never shown so brightly The glow from Debbie's face so brilliant as to envelope the preceding darkness Had we lost hope, the sun would never have risen & set so incredibly Never lose hope - endeavor to find it - embrace it Thank you Clare, Deborah, Eric and all the angels at the Waismann Institute from the bottom of my heart. You have truly saved our lives. May God bless and keep you always,"
