In the children's hospital of Cincinnati we could have a look through some very interesting laboratories.
There they make some tests about chromosomes and genetic defects.
It was very interesting, but sometimes very hard to understand because of the foreign words!
There they make and maybe can help you, or every way they can help you to live better with a genetic defect.
After this we visited Walgreen's.
This is more a drug store than a real pharmacy, I think, because there is mostly everything sold and OK, more pharmacy articles than in a supermarket like Kroger's.
So in Walgreen's you can buy more than 100 kinds of pain relievers, and more than 500 kinds of "Cold and Flu" medicines.
In the high-tech genetics laboratory, you can't buy any medicines, but the tests are much more expensive than, for example, a nicotine patch in Walgreen's.
But in Walgreen's mostly every medical thing is available.
You only have to ask if you don't know which kind of medicines you should take, and some medicines are secured.
What is very important when you buy some medicines is that you have to look for the price because, for example, every sort of Ibuprofen contains the same ingredients you only pay for the name of the pharmacy!
I think I will feel ignored when I can't say what I want them to do with me!
See you...

You're right about the huge choices at the pharmacy. Do you think the price is the most important factor when you are choosing the kind of medecine you want? How would you make a decision if you had a cold or a headache?
