Reply #297: From looking at your profile, I'd guess you have no relatives who....

[tyedyeto]

go to Canada or Mexico for prescription medications.

I live near the Mexican border and see many seniors who can't afford medicines here but go to Mexico for the prescriptions. Our 'wonderful' "Homeland (how I hate that word) Security" folks have been telling all the older folks down here to 'get your passport' or you can't come back when you walk over to Nogales for an hour or two. But they've delayed and delayed the date that you must HAVE a passport when walking across the border, several times already. We first heard that in early 2007, walkers would need a passport, so many seniors got them at a cost some could barely afford. Now, I hear it's been delayed until sometime in 2009.

Make up your mind folks!
