So fucking outraged by that Grant article I have emailed Stuff’s editor and Carmel Sepuloni. Enough with this trying to turn women’s lives into the Handmaids Tale. Remembered women do not ever give Stuff a cent.

This is a most vile study. Older people denigrated for needed pain medication. Live in manage shouts. Written by someone with no care for us at all. Despicable person. As my uncle used to say, who care if you get addicted. Pain relief is more important.
From the University of Auckland: Without these drugs, some pain would be unbearable – but new research reveals what older adults really should know about opioids, writes Hoda Fahmy.
