Job

Because of balance, tremors and coordination problems I might have to give up job as a brain surgeon, my last few operations didn’t go very well.

One now thinks he’s from another solar system and here to save the world.

Two now thinks he’s a horse.

Three now thinks he’s a tree.

The wife’s of 1 and 3 are livid.

People are too soft these days in my army days we done our own brain surgery using my Swiss army knife.

I was really mad yesterday as I fell down getting into my car this elderly woman came running up and said have you got ataxia this made me upset as I had just spent a small fortune on 9 pints of strong lager.

Very funny 😄 but if you want an interesting read about a surgeon who did have to give up the job he loved because of ataxia and now teaches people with ataxia all over the world how to walk well again, then look up Tom Clouse
