The middle aged man was visibly shaken when
his doctor advised that he had only 6 month's to live because of the terminal disease that
was detected during a recent physical check-up. The doctor suggested that he should
get his "house in order", make sure his will was current and ensure all final
arrangements were in place for the funeral. He should then make plans to enjoy what might
be left of his life, to the fullest.
"What will you do for the last six
months?" asked the doctor.
His patient thought for a few minutes then
replied, "I think I'll go and live with my mother-in-law."
Surprised by the answer, the doctor
asked, "Of all people, why in the would you want to live with your
mother-in-law?"
"Because it'll be the longest six
months of my life!"
