Activist Blog Proposal

Dear Project Manager,
In the past decade, thousands of medical breakthroughs have been made with the help of new technologies.  Advancements in medical science have already proved to be lifesaving, and medical experts think we have only just begun to scratch the surface of new potentially lifesaving treatments.  But outside the labs, alternative medical solutions are being tested around the world.

From meditation to magic-mushrooms, alternative treatments are being used to treat everything between paralysis and depression.  Dozens of narcotics banned in the 1970's are now being tested in government labs across the world.  Government funded studies have been designed to explore the healing potential of all sorts of alternative remedies.  Scientists have put the ignorant thinking of past officials behind them, and have begun to test drugs in safe and controlled environments.

The results of this new research are not only interesting, but amazing.  From the near-instant cure of post-traumatic stress syndrome to miraculous headache relief, the potential in this new research is limitless.  In my Activist Blog, I plan to profile a different treatment/story in each post: in order to raise awareness about this amazing research being done around the world.  Many of these treatments have negative connotations, but new clinical research can reform the images crafted by ignorant thinkers.  We would be limiting ourselves by not experimenting with these alternative solutions to major problems, and my blog will explore the progress being made around the world in this field.
