can produce a prescription up to a certain number and
a few months isn't yeah, twel I think I got
twelve months with it.

it's like, do you have more than two or three
months of medication? Yeah.

up with a prescription and a fishing of way, you
need this many.

doctor and the doctor said yeah, and then wrote him
a prescription for it. And then he just said, well,

of these twice a week, I'm going through one hundred
a year. I believe I'll be alive and hoping to
do this for the next ten years. And they were
like well yeah, heaps, wow, okay, yeah heaps. Remember I
