Life’s Like That

Nurse Knows Best


After my husband injured himself,
I took him to the doctor. There, the
nurse dressed his wound and gave
him instructions on how to care for
it. She then reassured him by adding,
“Now, if you do everything I’ve told
you, you won’t be with us for long.”

Moved to Tears


My six year old loved his pet fish.
He watched and fed it faithfully,
morning and night. But one day
while he was in school, his fish died,
so I flushed it down the toilet.
I told him when he got home,
and he was inconsolable. Nothing
I said helped. After a while, I asked,
“Why are you crying so much?”
Arching his back, he shouted,
“I wanted to flush!”

to be depressed four ways; one


is quite enough.” SUS IE BAT TAGLI A
