A man finally went to the doctor after weeks of symptoms. The doctor examined him carefully, then called the patient’s wife into the office.“Your husband is suffering from a very rare form of anemia. Without treatment, he’ll be dead in a few weeks.

With a sob, the wife blurted out, “The doctor says you’re goanna die!” On a serious note, for recommendations on eating healthy, check out our Nutrition Page.

At the reception, when his grandmother told him he had won the prize, he was both excited and relieved. “I was pretty sure I had it,” he admitted, “until Aunt Dana came in wearing that white dress and everyone stood up. Then I started thinking – she might win!”
