Description
"This accordion book was inspired by my father's pillbox. As an older man, he had to take a lot of pills until the end of his life. Morning, noon and night, every single day - if he was able to take all his pills, he was considered to be improving but towards the end, he didn't always succeed. This book is like his agenda of that time because taking his pills three times a day was his only essential duty. I felt that for him, taking his medication was a life affirming act. Unfortunately, in his case, the side effects of this medication actually increased the number of tablets he had to take. It is very common for old people to take medicines and food supplements. And nowadays, there is even a tendency for people in good health to take supplements everyday: vitamins, minerals etc., Is it to reassure themselves? We convince ourselves that these remedies are good for our health, but is it true? I cannot help thinking that some people might continue to take them until the end of their lives."--From author's website.
