Tuples and Attributes

Until this last week, the medication schedule here in our household was quite simple. Mom has a pill at 6am and a pill and a vitamin at 6pm. She also gets some eye drops and a nasal spray. I have a pill or an eye vitamin at 6am, 9am, and 9:30pm.

Brindy’s eye medications have made things a bit more interesting. Here’s the current schedule:

• 6am: pills for me and mom, drops for Brindy
• 7am: breakfast and antibiotic for Brindy
• 9am: salve for Brindy and pills for me
• 12pm: drops for Brindy
• 3pm: lunch and antibiotic for Brindy
• 6pm: pill, vitamin, eye drops, and nasal spray for mom and drops for Brindy
• 9pm: salve for Brindy and pills for me
• 11pm; small dinner and antibiotic for Brindy
• 11:45pm: drops for Brindy

Of course, since the drops are Brindy’s most frequent drug, they are the ones she absolutely hates. Probably doesn’t help that they have to be kept cold. She goes crazy trying to get the cone off for 10 minutes or so and then settles down.
