First it was in the knees
Appointment for double knee surgery
standing on sidelines on crutches
Grandson went off tackle and I ran
86 yards down the sideline
with him waving touchdown signal
Double knee surgery canceled
Left the crutches on the sideline
Now that is a plus for exercise
Then the pain went from thigh to knee
Most of the pain being Arthritis
You need to be scheduled for Hip surgery
Found more arthritis further searching
Doc said it appears it is lower back
Vertebrae were pointing out spikes
So tomorrow scheduled for spinal shot
The shot in the belly for Cancer was female hormones
I am still waking up with hot flashes
Now they want to inject steroids
Avoid walking take up swimming
My stroke has become that of a beached whale
I think they are getting closer to my backside
I'm afraid to have a bowel movement
I'm thinking they think me a pain in the butt
Let you know how it all comes out
But if they start talking lobotomy
I'm taking up the offer of going swimming
If I don't drown it's back to upping the Tylenol
Can the fall I took when my leg gave out
and I passed out eliminate exercise helping?
I refuse to use old age and use a walker
I may start training for the decathlon
Tommorow is today looking for a spine to tap
Knock on this puppet wooden head
No pain this morning
Five and a half onces of fluid
That doc said is good and make things better
I can put on my left sock and no pain
Starting training on decaith -coffee that is
Cancer under control and most pain gone
I think I'll stop complaining--not!
