JUST IN JEST

There was an elderly gentleman who was suffering from Alzheimer’s. His wife of 40 years loved him very much, but couldn’t handle him any longer. He would wander about never knowing where he was or sometimes even who he was. She took him to a nursing home.

While the wife was filling out paperwork, a nurse had the gentleman sit in a chair. Suddenly the man starting slowly leaning to his left. The nurse ran over and put a pillow on his left side to prop him up.

A few minutes later, he started leaning to his right. Again, the nurse ran over and put a pillow on his right side.

Then he starting leaning forward. This time, the nurse strapped him into the chair.

About this time, his wife, having completed the paperwork, walked up to him and asked, “How do you like the place?”

“It’s okay,” he said. “But, they won’t let me fart!”
