J        is for joints, that now fail to flex

          Wait! I forgot about K!
K       is for my knees that crack when they're bent
         (Please forgive me, my Memory ain't worth a cent)
           

N       for neurosis, pinched nerves and stiff neck
O       is for osteo- and all bones that crack
P       for prescriptions, I have quite a few
        Give me another pill; I'll be good as new!
             

Q      is for queasiness. Fatal or flu?
R      is for reflux--one meal turns into two

T       for tinnitus--I hear bells in my ears
U       is for urinary: difficulties with flow
V       is for vertigo, that's "dizzy", you know.
W      is worry, now what's going 'round?
X       is for X ray--and what might be found.
         

Y         for another year I've left behind
Z         is for zest  that I still have my mind,
          Have survived all the symptoms my body's deployed,
          And kept twenty-six doctors gainfully employed!!!
                  


           I wish You a day of Peace, Happiness and Joy
