WATER PILL WOBBLE
(“Yellow Rose of Texas”)
He got his medications
With double water pills,
Flushing out his fluid
Will take care of his ills…
With water weight reducing
He’ll easier breathe,
So he’ll not have to quickly
Make out a will to bequeath!
–
He’s feeling rather wonderful
As he runs for the pot,
Cloresterol reduction
Is not all that he’s got…
All this extra exercise
Is doing good as well,
As long as he wobbles
Carefully to avoid a spill!
–
His doctors have him taking stuff
With scientific names,
But when they say the name brand
He thinks they’re playing games…
It’s him who must coordinate
Between health services,
So there’s no duplication
Of what the other says!
–
He’s healthier but faces
Changing what he eats,
To not binge out on candy
Or salty tasty treats…
This is the hardest thing of all
But he’s got little choice,
He’s got to stop fooling himself
His doctors all voice!
