IIRC Magic was spending something like $25,000 a month on drugs that almost anyone else would not have been able to afford. Thank goodness the science has advanced to where it's basically not a deadly disease anymore. (For those in US, I should say)

Depending on the day my all time favorite is either Magic or Alonzo Mourning so I am all for Magic and being able to afford all the drugs.
