[humanser] question health care

[Reyazuddin, Yasmin]

Thanks all, 
I wanted to let you know that this individual had no clue. Provided all the suggestions I received from this list and gave them to her. I plan to contact her again in about a month to find out if the suggestions worked.

You receive many good responses. And I support all of them especially since I use script talk myself. Walmart has been very accommodating. One of the things besides a stackable pill case which I broiled myself is great depending on how many pills you need to take I only take things in morning at night so I only need two slots. One thing I’ve learned to do is the medications I take in the morning have caps on as usual. For nighttime drugs I have the caps on differently. They screw onto Waze and tactically I can tell the difference. I hope this is helpful and not too late. I agree with you, that this lady needs to know that the NFB exists and there are strategies to make people as independent as possible.
