Laughter is the Best Medicine

Humor and laughter help us remain young at heart. Jokes and comedy provide a ray of lightness in our lives. As a way to help our readers remain smiling, we provide monthly installments of jokes related to seniors and aging.

Here is your installment of humor for March:

Laughter is the Best Medicine…

While socializing one day, a woman was telling her friend, “Last night my sister and I were sitting in the den. I said to her ‘I never want to live in a vegetative state, dependent on some machine and fluids from a bottle to keep me alive. That would be no quality of life at all. If that happens, just pull the plug.’ So, my sister got up, unplugged my computer and threw out my wine!”

 

Laughter is the Best Medicine…

A 61-year-old man told his doctor that he was no longer able to help around the house like he used to.  After the doctor had finished examining him, the man said: “Now, doc, tell me in plain English, what’s wrong with me?”

“In plain English,” the doctor said, “you’re just lazy.”

“OK,” said the man, “now give me the medical term so I can tell my wife.”

 

Laughter is the Best Medicine…

One older fellow was saying to another, “When I was a boy, my mother would send me to the corner store with one dollar and I’d come back with five potatoes, two loaves of bread, a dozen eggs, a box of tea, and three bottles of milk. You can’t do that these days — too many security cameras.”

 

Laughter is the Best Medicine…

One early evening a police car pulled up in front of Grandma Marge’s house, and Grandpa Stanley got out. The polite policeman explained that this elderly gentleman said he was lost in the neighborhood park and couldn’t find his way home.

“Oh Stanley”, said Grandma Marge. “You’ve been going to that park for over thirty years! How could you get lost?”

Leaning close to his wife so that the policeman couldn’t hear, Grandpa Stanley whispered, “I wasn’t lost. I was just too tired to walk home.”
