Ailments, Troubles Of Old Age


Ailments, Troubles Of Old Age

"What’s a million dollars? A gift for the poor. Give me brains,  eyes, ears, arms, legs, ... that’s what I call a gift.” Something like that I said then, do you remember? And now I give myself a gift since I got back my legs as they do not hurt me anymore when I walk.

For many years, I’ve tried a lot, but it was in vain, you know? Only by chance, as I bow as low I can and then stand upright again, was I surprised, so happy. there was almost no pain and can I walk normal, not bend again.

Now, before they would hurt, I practice bowing and standing upright, anytime, anywhere, before I start walking. It doesn’t take a minute. I don’t wait till the pain returns, just as I exercized regularly and not wait till my asthma attacks me.

It costs me nothing except not to be reluctant, ashamed to do it. Besides I don’t dismiss my other exercizes.

So now, congratulate me, your husband. Don’t you be stressed anymore seeing me walking bend, you big, stupid pig, fool. Ha. Ha. So said Opa Johan.
