On growing older...
This is why you should always listen very closely to your doctor’s instructions.
I went to my nearby CVS Pharmacy, straight to the back, where the Pharmacists'
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 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 I should have a
pharmacist test my urine for sugar!"
I can never go back to that CVS, but I really don't care because they aren't very
friendly there, anymore!
