My regular readers will recall that several of my columns talked about grandparents. I don’t know the source of this whimsical piece, but for those of you who deal with grandparents (and who doesn’t?), this should bring a smile to your faces.
Rules:
- No skating in the hallways
- Finish all meals – even if it is hospital food
- Do what the doctors says
- Do what the physical therapists say – they will help you a lot
- Do what your parents say – sometimes they are even right!
- Walk when they tell you to walk – you’ll get better faster even though it hurts a little
- Get well soon!
- Get well soon!
- Remember we love you!
- Remember we love and we are rooting for you!
Do you have some favorite personal or office anecdotes? Are you willing to share them with me? I’d like to collect them and maybe share them with others. Please send them to melnick5050@outlook.com and be sure to include your name and address (street or e-mail). They will be appreciated.
