If you could not share this, I would appreciate it. He is a good man who was using it for medicinal purposes. It’s funny how people can put all sorts of drugs into their body that’s supposed to help them prescribed by a doctor but when you try to use something herbal they punish you. Shame on anyone who shares this. Sincerely, his daughter. And no this is not spam.
