No meds!

You decide to go without medications for the time being. After talking to some of the other migrants in detention, one of the kitchen staff tells you that you can eat a piece of garlic every morning to resolve diabetes.

This sounds like a much better and cheaper option to you than paying for medications.

She also tells you, though, that you can work for $1/day in detention to help pay for your medications. This does not sound like a lot of money to you, as you were previously earning nearly $20/hour.

What do you do?
