As we get older, we often expect that our lives are going to change. Sometimes they change for the better and other times, they may change for the worse.<\/p>\n
The woman in this joke experienced that truth whenever she was put in a nursing home. She was having a difficult time staying upright in her chair, but there was someone there to help her every time she started to lean over.<\/p>\n
The problem was, when her family came, she had a funny thing to tell them. I won\u2019t give any spoilers, but let\u2019s just say it is well worth the read.<\/p>\n
One evening, a family takes their frail, elderly mother to a nursing home, hoping she will be well cared for.<\/p>\n
The next morning, the nurses bathe her, feed her a tasty breakfast, and set her in a chair at a window overlooking a lovely flower garden.<\/p>\n
She seems O.K. but after a while, she slowly starts to lean over sideways in her chair.<\/p>\n
Two attentive nurses immediately rush up to catch her and straighten her up.<\/p>\n
Again, she seems O.K. but after a while, she starts to tilt to the other side.<\/p>\n
The nurses rush back and once more bring her back upright.<\/p>\n
This goes on all morning.<\/p>\n
Later, the family arrives to see how the old woman is adjusting to her new home.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo Ma, how is it here? Are they treating you all right?\u201d they ask.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s pretty nice,\u201d she replies.<\/p>\n
\u201cExcept they won\u2019t let you fart.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
