After working most of her life Grandma 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 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 that. 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."
