Rob, I agree with you completely. Religion and politics should never be an issue on this site. First of all everyone has their opinion on those subjects and that opinion in most cases can't be changed. Second of all the knowledge that we gain from one another regarding, side effects, terminology not understood and so much more is invaluable. So all my CML warriors, lets forget about every thing else and remember that we are all in the fight for our very lives. Lets continue to share all the information and help each other through the tough times we all encounter along the way. Words of encouragement when one of us is down and having bad thoughts, is so helpful! I will continue to wish all of you well, Jim Rodeghier

It is disruptive to this group to continue a discussion of religion. The U.S. healthcare system does have some very serious problems which is why it is ranked 37th in the world. It is a great concern to people in this group because the costs of CML medicines are among the most expensive in the world. If and when any real change comes to the healthcare system in the United States my opinion is that it needs to expand access to everyone (especially those with serious illnesses) while at the same time allowing reasonable but not excessive profits from those providers in the healthcare business. Let's keep in mind that this group is important to a lot in many countries. We do not need to drive anyone away with discussions that offend others and make them uncomfortable.
