Hi Susan T, and thanks for sharing the better news re: your mother. Blister packs--if I know what you mean--are hard to open sometimes. I wonder if you have tried the containers with separate little compartments which are usually labeled for the days of the week? I got 7 of them, and used white-out to cover the "day" labels, then wrote on the lids with permanent marker the times at which Peter takes his meds. I fill them for a week at a time, and this system works for us. He also takes a lot of different meds at different times, so I can understand the confusion you feel!
