Sometimes Seniors don't Understand Directions..........
I assume we are all Seniors ...or will soon be.
This is why you (a Senior?) should listen to your Doctors instructions.
I went to my nearby Shoppers Pharmacy, straight to the back, where thePharmacists' high counter is located.
I took out my little brown bottle, along with a teaspoon, and set them
up on the counter.
The Pharmacist came over, smiled, and asked if he could help me.
I said, "Yes! Could you please taste this for me?Seeing as I was a senior citizen, the Pharmacist went along.
He took the spoon, put a tiny bit of the liquid on it, put it on his tongue
and swilled it around.
Then, with a stomach-churning look on his face, he spat it out on the
floor and began coughing.
When he finally was finished, I looked him right in the eye and asked,
now, does that taste sweet to you?"
The Pharmacist, shaking his head back and forth with a venomous look in
his eyes yelled, "HELL NO!!!"
I said, "Oh, thank God! That's a real relief! My doctor told me to have
a Pharmacist test my urine for sugar!"
I can never go back to that Shoppers, but I really don't care, because they
aren't very friendly there anymore, anyway!
