Well, the pill crusher is back in action.

Like I mentioned yesterday, George planned on taking me to the va to pick up his meds. Surprisingly, He actually got his blood drawn. He hates as much as I do, and like me, waits until the last possible minute.
I found it funny, George rode the golf cart to our van, and I wheeled myself. We got there at about the same time. I almost beat them. In fact, I'd just unlocked the van while George was being aided out of the golf cart.
The pills are huge, so I have to break them down so he can eat them in chuncks. The pills are to large for the pill cutter, so I have to use a pill crusher.
Haven't needed that thing in years.

I'm 42, and my doctors want me on a host of meds. I refuse to take ones I know I don't need.

@kaylachan You're still a youngster. My heart rate was 117 in the office on Thursday. My PCP said it's bad for my heart; so she's giving me a med to slow it down. The same med that my husband was on for his AFIB.

Sounds like what I've heard called a "horse pill".

They are. and the dosage is on the high side, which is why it's so big.

Sounds like a mortar and pestle is what is needed for this job.
