I just finished watching Ring of Fire. I am watching it a second time. I have a fascination with or love of Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash and their love for each other. Having grown up with music all my life and a dad who played electric guitar on the radio and at numerous dances and events how could I not love music..it has always been a part of my life and always will be. I would be lost without music. What really amazes me about Johnny and June is June's love for Johnny despite his faults. In Ring of Fire it is about June's love for Johnny and what she will do for him at all cost. One of my favorite parts is where June says “I nursed him back from the grave,” she cries to the family’s counselor. “I hate him. I hate him. And that is just the truth of it. … I’m the one who has to stay strong and protect the kids and hold it all together. I want to ask God: What about me? I need help.” The counselor responds something like: You hate the disease; you love the man...that is what we all have in common here.
Love of anything whether it be a person, money, or a thing can cause a lot of people to do just about anything to hang on to that person, money or thing. It can cause people to do things they wouldn't normally do. It can cause people to cross lines they normally wouldn't cross. People fall into a Ring of Fire. I sense that is what has happened in the compounding world.
Consumers love compounded drugs...they work well for them when properly prepared. Consumers don't want to lose their right to purchase and use compounded medications. They fear losing this right if the federal government takes over the regulation of compounding. That fear is unfounded. Compounded drugs are needed and necessary. The federal government no matter what legislation it passes will not take away compounded drugs. Pharmacies and Pharmacists that compound drugs now may no longer be allowed or choose to compound medications. They may choose not to because they don't want to comply with the requirements of the federal government.
