Shutting down?

We were talking about those damned pills again.

"I only have enough for 3 weeks. I guess the Doctor didn't want to waste money on me when I am dead."

Perhaps I am over-bold but I said:
"You know I believe you go when it is your time to go. Not one minute before."

"Oh yes , I do too absolutely. But he only gave me 4 weeks you know.... and the pills will run out in less than that."

"Well then, it will give me the GREATEST of pleasures to come with you to the Pharmacy for your renewal on them."

We both laughed.

Thank God for humour.
