Today we picked up Teresa’s new medicine from Kaiser. There were four large bottles. On the price it said $5760.30. Our price was $3.00. Our insurance saved us $5757.30. This is very impressive! We eagerly tear open the bottle to see what they look like. We are surprised to see they are about twice the size of a extra strength tums. Then we read that she is not to chew them or swallow them whole. We must dissolve 4 tablets in apple juice or water, or orange juice (which she doesn’t like). It must be taken at least ½ hour before eating. It takes quite a few minutes to dissolve and turns a murky tan color when dissolved in apple juice. Teresa is already convinced it will taste horrible…. and the doc said she would be doing this for the rest of her life……. Oh no! Mom suggested a straw because grandma Ruth says it makes things not taste so bad so Teresa is off to find a straw. She takes a sip and laughs. It is not so bad after all. Where have I tasted this flavor before? ……..Probably some medicine from my childhood she thinks. At least we aren’t paying $5760.30 for this tasty experience. lol
