Weak kidneys can be cured but
Bright's disease, which always follows

my advice:

order and my nervous system broken
down. l have been using the Copper
medicines for one week and actually

perfectly. The soreness and pain has
entirely gone from my back and my
kidneys are in fine shape. The
medicine has strengthened me wonder
