86 Th Acton Free Proa Wed May by Wendy Thorium Something odd happened the other day that made me realize now helpless a ponton can become In certain situation Potentially serious the situation this time both funny and frustrating I wax Hit ling In Hie emergency room at the waiting for friend when a man v a Iked by with a young boy of four or five After awhile I noticed small commotion at the desk The nurse on unking the man usual questions found that he hie to nay who the boy was or what wan wrong with him A nurse was called and went through variations of name quest Inn with very little results he doctor brought In knew enough of two or three language to If Ihc man them He The nurse tried to get hold of people who spoke another language but lines were busy or people out All through this the little hoy silt until someone absent asked him a direct question Where do you hurt Ik Immediately held up his hand onflow a nnd on asked gave his name In this great world of rid applications nobody thought to anything of the moved a bit that The boy parents wire away and the man looking him was his uncle Then they hit another snag The produced prescription that had to be picked up at the drug store five minutes wh trying to get this to he man with instructions boy to take him there confusion reigned I couldn stand It any longer went to the desk and drive them to the drug store help them pick up the prescription and bring them back The nurses set med relieved to have everything solved and said they d phone ahead o pharmacy lo Inform them of the problem How It was enough to Ret man and boy outside thin difficulties started How do you tell person with no look 1 know you don know where we ro going or what we re going for but let go in my truck 1 11 bring you straight back after wards Anyhow when the boy headed for the tnick the uncle did loo and away we went Hut outside the store the next problem presented itself money After none seemed to be forthcoming naked the boy who somehow got the request across to his uncle He then asked mo In sign language One shook my head and signed back Two As he started to dig out a two dollar bill I belatedly thought of all the complications that could arise if thi bill came to mora than that However the boy and I trotted Inside to the counter only to I that if the hospital MAI a pharmacy It wasn t it one The girl the counter dldn know what t was talking about and me the prescription because she read the name which I tell her because I t know even though I was the one with the prescription 1 agree It DID Round odd but that s the way was Then the pharmacist came to have a look and said a script I on wasn needed for that drug anyhow Once the stuff was bottled and presented the final problem come up how to relay directions Take one tenspoonful four times a day I won t describe the charade that look place but the message hopefully got across Aha the prescription so I was able to return a penny Then away we
