Will I live to be 80?
A very nice lady recently picked a new primary care physician. After two visits and exhaustive lab tests, he said that she was doing “fairly well” for her age.
A little concerned about that comment, she couldn’t resist asking him, “Do you think I’ll live to be 80?”
He asked, “Do you smoke tobacco or drink beer &wine?”
“Oh no,” she replied. “I’m not doing either.”
Then he asked, “Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?”
She said, “No, my other Doctor said that all red meat is very unhealthy!”
“Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, sailing, hiking or bicycling?”
“No, I don’t,” she said.
He asked, “Do you gamble, drive fast cars or have a lot of sex?”
“No,” she said. “I don’t do any of those things.”
Then he looked at her and said, “Then why do you give a shit if you’ll live to be 80?”
