Title: Re: [Livingontheland] Is Being Healthy a Revolutionary Act?

Five years ago my husband had hernia surgery – he was 65 and during the check in the nurse was going through all the pertinent questions and came to what prescription medications he took.  None – she kept trying to clarify and make suggestions on what he might be forgetting – still none.  Well then what over the counter medications did he take – none.  Again she clarified and finally asked if he took anything – vitamins he said.  “Who prescribed those to you?” in a snotty tone.  “I did” I answered, equally as snotty.  They finally sent the surgeon in just to make sure Jim was telling the truth.  It just couldn’t be that a 65 year old male could be that healthy.  And, by the way, the hernia was due to surgery two years before from food poisoning – but that’s a real hate joke!!!
