THE PATIENT PATIENT an ode to aps

Oh whats the matter with me

Why am i feeling so fatigued

The brain is a fog

I can"t walk the dog

Then i get muddled and it"s a fact

Don"t know where i"m going or how to get back

I feel so tired i cannot describe

And no longer go outside

I ache allover and it wont stop

Think i"d better see the doc

So off we go the wife and i

I can barely manage a smile

First he looks at my chest

Then sends me off for some tests

Poked and prodded whats been done

They even looked up my bum

Two years later and guess what

I get a call from the doc

A.P.S. is what you"ve got

And like it or not your blood tends to clot

Feelings of dread race around my head

Now i cant think am i on the brink!

Then YIPPEE i say halfheartedly

You"ve now found out whats wrong with me

Buts that"s not all he says with ease

There"s possibly another disease

So now i feel so dismayed

To know ill be poked and prodded again

But i must not be so glum

Cause they"ve already looked up my bum

So ill plod on and wait and see

What next they"ll find that"s wrong with me.

Hope you enjoyed and had a giggle written by Dexters dad

You have a very clever dog! Dexter is quite the rhyming and metered pooch!

( His owner must be a very positive influence on him😉)

Sadly for me they had to look up my wotsit on more than the one occasion! It doesn't get any better second time round....
