SENIORS

A distraught senior citizen 
phoned her doctor's office. 
'Is it true,' she wanted to know, 
'that the medication 
you prescribed has to be taken 
for the rest of my life? ' 
'Yes, I'm afraid so,' the doctor told her . 

There was a moment of silence 
before the senior lady replied, 
'I'm wondering, then, 
just how serious is my condition 
because this prescription is marked 
'NO REFILLS'.'
