I have had three amputations in my life and during the process I have met many other disabled people, think about our cherished Veterans who were sent and damaged, but in the end all of the people with amputations and disabilities who are trying to keep their houses. Please help us make a difference, we need it badly. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!

Allergen-Free food is so expensive. Stand together and work to make these foods affordable for all who need them. Some healthy diets are a choice, but not ours. We don't get to buy the cheap and easy food; We don't even have too many choices where we can buy the food we need. Our allergies can be life-threatening. Let's help each other get more affordable pricing for gluten-free foods, vitamins and medicine. Lets save more people from suffering debilitating and painful symptoms and diseases.

The Red Cross in Stockholm, Sweden has for 25 years been running a specialized clinic helping torture victims from all over the world. These very vulnerable patients need to meet professional caregivers with a long experience. The county council in Stockholm has now decided that this care can be procured from a private, VC owned company, since "experience is not an asset". This must be stopped

In Colorado, spending what we do now or less, we can have full health care for everyone, with better outcomes. Coloradans deserves to have affordable, quality health care. Every taxpayer and business needs relief from escalating insurance costs. We need to pay for our health care in a way that is efficient, transparent and accountable to us - the residents of Colorado. We need Colorado money to stay in Colorado and to create Colorado jobs.  The Federal health reform legislation won't get us there. Coloradans need to take health reform into our own hands. Vermont is creating a universal, affordable health care system, and Colorado can also if we all work together. We need to tell the governor and legislators that Coloradans need more than incremental improvements. Tell them that we'll help them do what's right: affordable, quality, sustainable health care for all Colorado residents.  For more information: 4COHealth.org HealthCareforAllColorado.org

I'm Lauren and I'm one of many hard-working, awesome Americans that just happens to have a life altering disease. Since I was 24, I have had this sneaking suspicion that I was very ill. Unfortunately, I was uninsured. As 25, I was at work waiting tables and very suddenly lost the use of my legs. Needless to say, crawling isn't good form in a restaurant so I broke down and went to the ER. Two weeks later I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, a disease that attacks the protective coating around the chocolate center that is your nerves. Eventually, I lost sight in my right eye, most of my balance and at 27, I fall multiple times everyday. I've been working since I was 14, am trying to go to school to become a therapist to help people in my condition and I think I'm a decent person. Still, I'm pretty sure that every time I hear certain people talk about how their taxes shouldn't pay for my medicine, they're really saying that it's not worth it to them if I live. If you have a friend of a friend like me, tell everyone that they're worth your money by signing.

The Tennessee Medical State Health Board, illegally recieved medical records and the Board Members conspired with Lifepoint Hospital to suspend my medical licence. They used "experts' who were not qualified to be experts, because they themselves were under investegation, by the same medical board. Lifepoint Hospitals have allowed physicians who were hurting, maming and killing patients in order to keep profits up. Lifepoint Hospitals corrupt the government and use illegal process and any means necessary to eliminate competition. The Medical board sent its investagators to my place of employment to harass me and my employers. In ten years of investegation they have not been able to come up with one case of negligence or malpractice! Their actions are totally illegal and the State Court and Supreme Court refuse to evaluate the lack of due process and illegality of the medical board. I have asked the State Attorney General to investegate,but get no response.My life has been destroyed because of my ethnicity and my objections to poor medical care at expense of poor people. As a result I went through a divorce and the Judge who was corrupt incarcerated my attorney without trial, and then intimidated and coerced me, giving my ex-wife an asset to which she has no contribution and did not deserve under statutory law. The twenty first judical district of Tennessee is corrupt and this has been voiced by an assistant District Attorney and other attorneys.

Budget cuts in Washington, D.C. will eliminate the funding for the doctor, Su Young Kim, who is the principal researcher into pediatric gastrointestinal stromal cancer (GIST).The rarity of this tumor, combined with biological differences between children and adults with GIST, have made it difficult to study the natural history of this disorder and to determine the best therapy for pediatric patients. Pediatric GIST research at the National Cancer Institute of the National Institutes of Health in Maryland, is conducting a clinical studies of the disease, working with patients from across the country. It's an effort to better understand the disease and develop better treatments for the children afflicted by it.

Coverage for enteral formulas was cut from the NY State Medicaid Budget earlier this year. The removal of supportive calories, protein, and micronutrients has put many malnourished HIV(+) individuals at heightened risk of infection, hospitalization, and even death. For the past 6 months, the Coalition to Reinstate Enteral Formulas Coverage has been educating key NY State government officials that removing enteral formulas coverage from AIDS patients who are losing weight significantly increases the cost of caring for these individuals. WE ARE NOW AT A CRITICAL MOMENT. There are 5 key decision makers who are currently reviewing this issue. Please sign this petition and urge the decision makers to REINSTATE ENTERAL FORMULAS IN NY MEDICAID. With your signature and a short message, your concerns will automatically be sent, and your voice will be heard. HELP HIV/AIDS PATIENTS WHO ARE LOSING WEIGHT. WE NEED YOUR HELP NOW!

The WI Republicans want to help balance the budget by kicking 53,000 adults and children off BadgerCare. Premiums are scheduled to increase as much as 1100%. This is totally unacceptable. This will prevent people from getting cheaper healthcare earlier, and drive up costs with later expensive emergency room visits and preventable hospitalizations. Tell Gov. Walker and the Fitzgerald brothers this is unacceptable.

We call on Congress to demand that the FDA summarily withdraws the NDI Draft Guidance and goes on the record stating that the agency will not, now or ever, review, consider, surveil or engage in enforcement activities according to the re-interpretation of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA) evident in its Guidance document but, instead, will honor the law that the American people gave to the FDA (via Congress) to uphold via regulation according to both the spirit, letter, and plain and intended meaning of DSHEA.

According to the Congressional Research Service, there is NO federal law requiring psychiatrists to use real medical care so that a patient can recover. Members of the American Psychiatric Association (APA) use only palliative care which cures almost no one. Meanwhile they continue to suppress orthomolecular treatment which has a 90% recovery rate.
