Booze On A Budget
ALCOHOL, ATLANTA, EDITORS' CHOICE, GEORGIA, OFFICE, PARENTS/GUARDIANS, PATIENTS, USA | HEALTHY | JULY 9, 2019
(I recently accompanied my mother to a doctor’s appointment.)
Doctor: “Okay, now, since I’m giving you [medication], no alcohol while you’re taking it.”
Mother: “Question. By ‘no alcohol,’ do you mean ‘no alcohol at all,’ or is it okay to just have one or two drinks with dinner?”
Doctor: “Well, one drink will feel like four.”
Mother: *without missing a beat* “So, I’m just saving money?”
Me: “MAHM! STAHP!”
