I feel the same way you do! And Rush hasn't said once he still has a problem with uncontrolled pain....BUT that's the assumption EVERYONE is making (and I've been accused of making a lot of assumptions)
He had a powerful forum to do a lot of good...but he doesn't care about chronic pain patient's....he cares about getting HIS drugs...in the quantity HE wants, from the easiest source available...he got caught, hence his "heartfelt" confession....I feel your anger & your pain...
