NO. My good friend lives in Glace Bay Nova Scotia, he’s 50 and won’t see 51 due to Canada Care. Reduced to poverty and NO medical care. He doesn’t know how long he will be in the slum house he’s in. Little money for food or a stripped down phone. He’s had to drop some meds made in China. Adhesive Adhesive Arachnoiditis Pain is liken to Bone Cancer, he is nearly Stage 4. Most don’t live past Stage 2 before committing Suicide. Patients die on the floor in the ER.

Sorry to hear about your friend. I’ve had all sorts of pain, mostly related to degenerative joints but I had an lung infection that pressed on a nerve for nearly a year before it was properly diagnosed and treated. It radiated from my back down my arm to my finger tips. Terrible pain that opioids barely touched. I can only imagine the pain your friend is enduring. Added the lack of proper medical care in “Free Medicine” in Socialist Canada is not shocking to those who pay attention to the issues.

Prayers for him and his family.
