Do you guys remember on the "Today I" thread how we were all wondering what to do with out old meds, etc.?
Well, I saw this article and although it has nothing to do with intentional disposing of meds, it sort of adds to our thoughts on that thread. So I'll post it below, and at the end I'll post the address, but sometimes the addresses change the stories, so I'll copy the whole article as well. God bless...us all!!!

Hi Tam!
Another online Group I belong to posted this article - very disturbing. Poison Control advises when disposing of unused drugs, put the pills, etc into kitty litter then step on it to break up the pills into the litter. It's the safest method. But as far as the stuff we pee out... we have the chemical know-how to make clean water from pee - we just don't implement it. GROSS. (If anyone is watching the "water wars" in the south, you know that the water Atlanta sends down river to Alabama and Florida is SEMI-treated. Yuck! And the water we are now draining from our resivoir lakes is 'bottom-water' so the water we start out with is yucky too. GA's Governor had the brainy idea that part of Tennessee actually belongs to GA (39th parallel or some such thing) just so that we could snatch some water rights. Tennessee's answer: send the Governor of GA a small pickup truck filled with bottled water! LOL!!)

Hi guys! I was just coming over here to see if you all had seen that! When I heard about this on the news last night, I thought of our previous conversation in regard to this topic...
I never did get a good, full proof answer as to how to 100% safely dispose of my coumadin so it is still sitting in the bottle in my medecine cabinet. (The local news reported that traces of prescription antibiotics were found in the Denver water system - yuck!) |

And... did you all see that caffeine was found in the water too, in some cities!?! Imagine, making your morning pot of coffee in one of those places!
