The road to hell is paved with good intentions

Or as Saint Bernard of Clairvaux wrote, "L'enfer est plein de bonnes volontés et désirs" (hell is full of good wishes and desires)



This isn't a new drug, but a different delivery system for a product that has been available for years. It is effective at relieving pain. It is "intended only for cancer patients experiencing 'breakthrough' pain". That's good, but the risk of misuse persists and the article I'm referencing points out some of the terrible consequences of using the drug improperly.



I pray that this new spray fulfills the good intentions and that it can be kept out of the hands of those who would abuse it..
