I will make my point briefly. If all of a person's medicines are replaced - sadly, it is not just three, as many people have many more - ten days down the road, he or she will not know what each of them is for. He or she knows there is an anti-coagulant, a medicine to treat a heart condition and another to treat a cholesterol problem, but he or she will not know which is which. That is the point I am making.
