Just for Fun
If you can....
If you can start the day without caffeine,
If you can get going without pep pills,
If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,
If you can resist complaining and
boring people with your troubles,
If you can eat the same food every
day
and be grateful for it,
If you can understand when your loved
ones are too busy to give you any time,
If you can take criticism and
blame without resentment
If you can ignore a friend's limited
education and never correct him,
If you can conquer tension
without medical help,
If you can relax without liquor,
If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,...
Then You
Are Probably The Family Dog!

When you must cope with a disabling chronic illness, it's sometimes easy to get
down in the dumps. (We all get sick and tired of being sick and tired!) These
suggestions will help you find ways to laugh and keep those everyday downs under
control so that you spend more time being "up" -- on yourself and your life.
