MRS. SMITH

 

 

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 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 it

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!!!!
