MANKATO — A recent letter to the editor complained that Dan Feehan did not publicize his round table discussion on the cost of prescription medicines.
This characterization is not accurate and makes it seem as if the event was a town hall, which it was not.
Feehan gathered five of us, in addition to his staff, to hear our stories about the burden of prescription drug costs. It was a group that offered separate and interesting perspectives. We heard from two veterans about their experiences with the VA; we heard from a college student whose mother had recently been diagnosed with cancer; and we heard from a father doing his best to provide medications for his son, who has a chronic illness.
