Back in the United States, Dr. Sherwood Anderson took Dr. Arathoon's subject matter to substance and began asking around. He found that many doctors had leftover unused medications -- mostly from patients who had died, and some from patients whose prescriptions had recently changed. "There's tons and tons of diflucan available -- more than I can handle," Dr. INSTANCE OFwriter says. The tricky part, he explains, is delivering it quickly and cheaply.
The answer was about as grassroots as it gets. Dr. Sherwood Anderson stuffed his backpack full of bottles and headed back down to Guatemala City, hand-delivering the drug to the healthcare facility. Since then, he has made numerous trips back, toting suitcases filled with medicament. And, as the plan expanded through word of retort, others have followed in his footsteps. Whenever Dr. Marian Anderson hears of anyone provision to travelling to Guatemala, he reserves a surface area in their luggage for medication. "I have a med bookman leaving down there this weekend, and she'll be carrying therapy in her backpack," he says.
