Will I live to see 80?

Here's something to think about. I recently picked a new primary care doctor. After two visits and exhaustive Lab tests, he said I was doing 'fairly well' for my age.


A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't resist asking him, 'Do you think I'll live to be 80?'
He asked, 'Do you smoke tobacco, or drink beer or wine?'
'Oh no,' I replied. 'I'm not doing drugs, either!'


Then he asked, 'Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?
'I said, 'No, my former 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,' I said.


He asked, 'Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lot of sex?'
'No,' I said.


He looked at me and said,....
'Then, why do you even give a shit.'
 
:thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs: I'd rather be 70 and dead than 80 and miserable because I was unable to enjoy any of the most wonderful pleasures in life.
