My Robotic Surgeon R26475

Here is R26475 He’s your surgeon, head of ward Five. I have no word This seems absurd But he actually kept me alive. Thank you R26475 Both knees are fixed, I can take a dive. You helped me so much My toes I can touch. You’ve given me back my groove and jive.

I need to meet R26475, for this damp weather is causing my DBD to act up. I can always tell when a cold front is coming through. But...I'm too old and infirmed for surgery, so I'll just take these aching bones with me.

Yeah, sure! But as they say, better than the alternative....who the hell is "they," who are damned smart????

I have arthritis in both ankles. Some days I take one step on the school's concrete floors and I think I have broken BOTH ankles. Really fun to get old Hank. Bah! Humbug!
