The doctor that had been seeing an 80-year-old woman for most of her
life finally retired.
At her next checkup, the new doctor told her to bring a list of all
the
medicines that had been prescribed for her. As the young doctor was
looking through these, his eyes grew wide as he realized she had a
prescription for birth control pills.
'Mrs. Smith, do you realize these are BIRTH CONTROL pills?'
'Yes, they help me to sleep at night.'
'Mrs. Smith, I assure you there is absolutely NOTHING in these that
could possibly help you sleep!'
She reached out and patted the young Doctor's knee. 'Yes dear, I know
.
But every morning, I grind one up and mix it in the glass of orange
juice that my 16 year old granddaughter drinks . . . . And believe me,
it helps me sleep at night!'
