Charting out med schedule


Vern's duty is to give meds as directed. Some vary in quantity or sequence. It's downright confusing at times. Many meds have 2-4 common names.

We start four days of home chemo tonight as well as IV chemo in a few hours.

Pain killers are not on the above charts since they are on an even different schedule. Some are 'as needed.'

Then there is the poor insurance company who will not authorize refills when needed because their records show we have plenty of pills left while our pill bottle shows empty. Then throw in the confusion of home pharmacy records vs Arkansas records.

But, praise God there are meds! We are so grateful for them!
