Good job self on not selling off those meds!

My mom works in a low income area. It's considered normal to be able to buy an inhaler, antibiotics, glucose monitoring kits, and etc. for under $5 if you know the right people. It's also considered normal to for people to forget their illicit drugs while shopping for clothes and buy a stolen laptop or two (for $50). Pretty darn amazing how fast and cheap weed or coke can sell in the area. If you ever leave behind something in that part of the city, it will be gone 1 hour later and sold to somebody else. My mom brings home these meds and ask if there is any worth selling or keeping. I don't need google to realize the cocktail she brought home should be returned (for once I remembered a nursing lecture). The man I called thanked me for finding his meds and told me he was prepared to wait another 3 months to refill (and afford) those medications. He's going to pick them up tomorrow. I felt like a good person.

Thank you for doing what was right.
