Response - An Ounce Of Cure

An Ounce Of Cure

I think in this story the title an ounce of cure, realates to the fact that she was "torturing herself" and she was going to "swallow all the aspirins in the bathroom cabinet, but stopped after she had taken six". I think this is what the title if refering to, because instead of swallowing all the aspirins, she stooped after just a few of them, and each one is probably close to an ounce. Thus meaning that the aspirins which were an ounce would cure her problems. I think this meaning was changed to the title, because it sums up the story quite simply. The aspirins were just a few ounces, and there were to help her with her problems, and to try and cure her from having these problems again. This theme is explored throughout the story because she runs in to little problems here and there, and each problem need to be "cured".
