A DIABETES type-1 BENEFIT!
You probably say, “Is he gone nuts?” No, this is a very serious story I must tell you!
In this life you just never know around which corner there could be a
benefit for you and be pleasantly surprised by it. Like this morning Jo
and I (the Bobsy twins we are called by our friends) went shopping at
Walmart for another pill organizer. You know from Monday to Sunday
there are little boxes with a lid on top you put your pills in there
not to forget to take them. Well, right next to us was an older woman
on here knees. I was going to say, "lady I’m really not that important
you know, just ask my wife here!"
Instead I said "Saying your prayers? No, she wasn’t, it was just that
in the vitamin department they kept them convenient low in rows but you
either had to go on your knees or end up with a king size backpain to
find what you were looking for.
Anyway, back to the lady on the floor who had risen by now. She said
“No, you want me to say one for you?” Well, this was an offer I couldn’t refuse.
She said “Do you have difficulties?” I said, "Well I’m married 60 years
with only the one woman, had a heart attack, a stroke, 50 years of
diabetes first class, now on 5 needles per day, my bladder quit on me,
my eyes have several problems I feel that you could say that! “You need
a prayer or two” she said, “what is your name?”
I said “Tell Him that it is for John, He knows me!”
JOHNBEN.
Well, so many things have happened to me since my last siggie.
Soon be 50 years on the needle. Soon be 20 years catherterizing
my bladder who threw in the towel because of neuropathy.
Soon be 80 years young. Had a stroke and small heart attack.
