Phone call
----------
My mother was away all weekend at a business conference. During a break,
she decided to call home collect.
My six-year-old brother picked up the phone and heard a stranger's voice
say, "We have a Marcia on the line. Will you accept the charges?"
Frantic, he dropped the receiver and came charging outside screaming, "Dad!
They've got Mom! And they want money!"
Fun with therapy
----------------
I had heart bypass surgery. For recovery, they have you do an exercise
program. So I go to the doctor and he asks if I have been exercising. I
reply, "Yes. Religiously."
"How is it going?"
"Well, at first it was kind of tiring doing all that once a week...."
"Once a week?"
"Yeah, you know, religiously. Just like church: every seven days. But
its better now. I became a Baha'I so now its just every 19 days."
===========
Now I have a "shoulder impingement" and getting physical therapy for that.
The therapist gave me exercises, too.
"Have you been doing the exercises?" he asks.
"Yes. Religiously. Every time I start a set I start with 'Oh God!'"
Then they tried electrical stimulation of the shoulder. I think its
called a tens unit. So she puts the patches on, starts the machine and
asks me to tell her when I feel a tingle. Just as that starts I say
"OK. I can feel it. Say, is this going to interfere with my
pacemaker?" [Note: I don't have a pacemaker] Well, its only fair.
She stimulated blood flow to my shoulder, and I stimulated blood flow to
her heart.
