Uncle Billy's Achilles

Saw chiro ‘bout a kink in the neck, saw the x-ray and said, “WHAT THE HECK?!?” Pinched nerve to my elbow, doc was a nice fellow, but he WOULDN'T take my credit or check! I run to the ATM for cash, my left buttocks I notice a rash- Spread to my Achilles, just like uncle Billy’s! SO IRRITATED, got in a crash! Ambulance took me to ICU, sphincter upset I started to spew- My intestines ALL ripped! All body parts unzipped.... “Sir, your Uncle Billy's here for you." Dazed I heard a darn hillbilly speak, rambling on 'bout the rash on his CHEEK! Then the chiro walked in, dared to show a big grin :) A KICK in the nuts, he would'a squeaked!!! Body parts used: 1. Neck 2. Elbow 3. Buttocks 4. Achilles 5. Sphincter 6. Intestines A Body Of Work Contest Sponsor : Viv Wigley Date written: September 9, 2016

Cute one..Got a chuckle..My husband is still complaining about going to get his heart checked out for the third time and it cost 9,000 for the test that doesn't include doctor's fees or doctors who read the reports or film, etc..He might have a ruptured splinter when it is all over..Thanks for the honor of placing in your contest..Sara

Oh no! I am so angry at the health care Insurance system. I don't know if you live in USA but it's terrible here. Especially in Michigan..I hope it all works out for the best Sara :)-luloo
