Pink pills for pale people

For years my father has said when getting out his medications to take prior to a meal, "Well, it's time to get my pink pills for pale people." It is a fun comment and always worth a chuckle.

Recently my doctor said I should take 1000 mg of vitamin B-12 daily for anemia due to a health condition. When I first opened the bottle and shook out a tablet I could not help but laugh when I saw the color of the tablets - PINK!

Now I never fail to think of my Dad each day when I take my pink pill.  It's a connection that will stay with me the rest of my life, and a great one that I cherish.
