Will I Live To Be 80?

Here’s something to think about.

 

I recently picked a new primary care doctor. After two visits and exhaustive Lab tests, he said I was doing ‘fairly well’ for my age. (I just turned SIXTY NINE).

 

A little concerned about that comment, I couldn’t resist asking him, ‘Do you think I’ll live to be 80?’

 

He asked, ‘Do you smoke tobacco, or drink beer, wine or hard liquor?’

 

‘Oh no,’ I replied. ‘I’m not doing drugs, either!’

 

Then he asked, ‘Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?’

 

‘I said, ‘Not much… my former doctor said that all red meat is very unhealthy!’

 

‘Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, boating, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?’

 

‘No, I don’t,’ I said.

 

He asked, ‘Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lots of sex?’

 

‘No,’ I said…He looked at me and said,.. ‘Then, why do you even give a shit?’
