I take a lot of pills!

Ever since my heart attack and stent installation I have had several prescriptions. Some more have been added by the doctor and I have added some.

Thirteen bottles, weekly pill holder, and a pill cutter.

I keep them in a tool box.

Ten in the morning and thirteen in the evening.

I know a man, 99 years old, who does not take any pills. They are a pain to keep up with and to take. I ran out of one prescription on a tour of the West Coast and thought that I would just do without. Unfortunately by the time I got home to Ruston I could just barely pee. That prescription shrinks my prostrate. I make sure that I do not run out of it again.
