“I
have spent so much on these diseases. When it was first diagnosed, the
doctors said the ailment was severe, that they would need to control its
progression for it not to affect my kidneys. This they did, and I was
happy they succeeded, but now, other serious ailments have set in,
necessitating this battle of survival. I am not tired yet; I still want
to continue to make people laugh, but my failing health is a terrible
obstacle.” he said
