My blood pressure is up
cholesterol is too
I have a heart-beat that is quite erratic
My blood sugar reads high
LDL is too low
the scale says that my weight is still pathetic
My hearing is near gone
one eye is almost blind
my doctor informed me with a slight chortle
Well now Jerry, my friend
at least you are not dead
but remember that you are not immortal
So here’s another pill
if you take it you’ll feel
just a little bit more like you did before
But the best thing for you
would be to take a long walk
and leave all the ice cream and pie at the store
Cute and so freakin’ true!

I thank you. I was telling someone on Facebook that we should open a restaurant that sells pie topped with ice cream, Metformin, Lisinopril and Simvastatin and we’d get rich.

By God, you remind me of me. No wonder we get along. I think I have the same doctors as well.

Well…home made ice cream tastes better anyway.
I’ll leave the page quietly.
