My Grandmother...



The Setting:
I am sitting at my desk at my mom's house working on thank you letters.
The phone rings and I pick up...


The Conversation:
Mema: "Hello, my sweet darling!"
Me: "Hey, Mema. What are you up to?"
Mema: "Not much, I wanted to tell you a nurse story!"
Me: Oh no, this is never good..."Alright, Mema, fire away."
Mema: "So your Meme woke up today with a terrible rash. It was all over her chest and back."
Me: "Oh my goodness, Mema, what did it look like? Do you have some hydrocoristone cream at the house?"
Mema: "Will you let me finish?"
Me: "..."
Mema: "Anyways, I got to thinking that I had some spray for allergic rashes left over from Riley's last doctor visit."
Me: " Well, Mema, I would be really careful. There are lots of types of rashes. Using someone else's prescription may actually hurt Meme."
Mema: " I know, but..."
Me: Interrupting "Wait!!! Mema....are you talking about Riley as in your CAT RILEY????"


 Long story short my grandmother used her cat's allergy spray to clear up a rash on my 87 year old Meme... the rash was gone by the next day...


The things my grandmother comes up with never cease to amaze me...
