"Now, I know some hospitals where you get the patients lying around in bed. Sleeping, resting, recuperating, convalescing. Well, that's not the way we do things here, right! No, you won't be loafing about in bed wasting the doctors' time. You - you horrible little cripple. What's the matter with you?

and relax and destress. It is wonderful, easy and simple.

Or you can choose to ignore my advice - and head off into your
future heart attack. But don't say that nobody suggested an
possible alternative course of action. Okay?
