teeny Posted September 23, 2012 Author Share Posted September 23, 2012 Do doctors prescribe all these things you take over? We have a team of drs but meds cost triple what they cost here , People in Zimbabwe are very poor and live on less that $1 a day , buying meds isn't always possible , often meds cost triple of even 100% more than here also children die from lack of basic meds, The vitamins are to prevent rickets which we are seeing in the rural areas surrounding Bulawayo, pain killers to bring temps down don't need to be prescribed by a dr , every time your child has a temp do you take them to drs or do you treat yourself? all the items we ask for are what you can buy over the counter and are so important to these children , we try to supply as much as possible to help the children here , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
