For those living with pain, there is a better solution than drugs.
The road stretched forward, wreathed in obscuring mist through the shadows. Leaves jeweled with dew glinted in the autumn dawn that struck golden shafts through the tunneled veil. For many, the path life has set before them is veiled by pain, and they cannot live their lives with joy because they are bound by the restrictions their symptoms weigh upon them. Many people are not free because of pain.
Seeking a way of escape some turn to Opioids – not realizing they are further binding themselves into addiction and hopelessness. Drugs cannot Fix the Cause of their pain – they can only Cover Up the Symptoms.
But there is hope.
