My son had green puss draining out of his left ear. I took him to see his doctor. He informed me that he had a rupture ear drum, He gave me two slips for generic medicine. I took it to the pharmacy and dropped it off. I waited around to pick it up. I go up there to pay and the man at the counter said $160.85. I about threw up. I didn't have the money. i called my mom and asked her. She came to town and brought me the money. I was so embarrassed. I can only imagine how much the name brand drug cost. I am just glad I have someone to call in cases like that. My son really needed that medicine. I wouldn't have know Idea who to call if she had said no.
