    You’ll live until 99, but when will you get Alzheimers?

    This could end up like one of the “monkey’s paw” stories, or like a bargain with Farchgrind. He’ll live to 99, yes… but only after suffering from a crippling stroke at 45 and being paralyzed and bedridden for half a century :-(

    Don’t sell yourself short. When you are 99 you will want to have a 100th birthday.

    This is why you “treat” the arthritis, but not cure it.

    Is this a prescription for life or death?

    I remember when the song When I’m 64 came out in 1967 and I was 12 years old, I’m 69 now and those years went by like a blink of an eye. 99 is around the corner Doc.

    What he didn’t tell you is that you will be bedridden with necessary constant medical attention until you turn 99……

    Hmmm … Death has issues with joints and such … Makes him seem that much more regular … I’d have a drink with him before I go … ;)
